US Department of Justice reportedly recommends that Google be forced to sell Chrome, and boy does Google not like that: 'The government putting its thumb on the scale'

"The US Department of Justice's top antitrust officials will ask a judge to enforce the sale of the Chrome browser, which follows a major ruling in August that found Google had acted illegally to stifle competition."

"Antitrust officials, alongside several US states, are seeking to compel Alphabet Inc. to sell off Chrome, raising significant questions about the browser's market value and future ownership."

"Should the judge accept the DOJ's recommendations, this would represent the most significant crackdown on a technology company, with potential implications for Google's Android OS and AI technologies."

"Google's vice president asserted that the DOJ is pursuing a radical agenda, claiming that the government's actions may impose unfair limitations that impact competition in the tech space."
