The US Department of Justice is pressing Google to sell its Chrome web browser as part of ongoing antitrust litigation, arguing that Google's market dominance distorts competition. Under the Biden administration's proposals, this move aims to reduce Google's monopolistic behavior. Interestingly, the DOJ has eased restrictions on Google's AI investments, requiring only advance notice instead of mandatory divestments. While Google plans to appeal the ruling about its search monopoly, it argues that the DOJ's requirements are excessively burdensome and detrimental to market conditions and consumers.
According to a court document filed Friday, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) maintains that Google must sell its web browser Chrome.
The DOJ suggested last year that Google should divest Chrome, a measure proposed under former president Joe Biden.
Google has indicated that it will appeal the ruling, stating that it has proposed alternative measures to address the judge's concerns.
The DOJ relaxed its requirements in the area of artificial intelligence, now only requiring advance notice of future investments.
