The proposed remedies from the DOJ, including Chrome divestiture and revisions to Google's exclusive agreements, aim to dismantle monopolistic control over search and ad markets.
The most dramatic of the DOJ proposals is the potential forced sale of Chrome, which is projected to be valued at approximately $20 billion due to its extensive user base.
These measures address Google’s past tactics to prevent competition, such as exclusive agreements with partners like Apple and Samsung to dominate the search and advertising spaces.
The challenges posed by disentangling Chrome from Google’s other services, particularly the Privacy Sandbox initiative, could be significant and time-consuming for developer teams.
