The DOJ has proposed that Google sell off its Chrome web browser... The proposal also seems to right a cosmic wrong from more than two decades ago when the DOJ... tried (and failed) to get Microsoft to unbundle its own Internet Explorer browser.
Instead, why not force Google to strip Chrome of its Google-promoting features, and let the browser be a burden rather than a tool for market domination?
I argued that declaring Google a monopoly might not matter, because the company had already won the search wars.
Google's control of Chrome has surely benefited its market position and its bottom line. But Chrome might remain a boon for Google even if it's under outside ownership.
