On November 21, 2024, U.S. prosecutors formally argued to a federal judge that Alphabet's Google must divest its Chrome browser to end its monopoly on online search. This demand is part of the ongoing antitrust case against the technology giant.
Prosecutors also requested that Google be prohibited from re-entering the browser market for five years. Additionally, they proposed measures requiring Google to share data and search results with rivals, aiming to foster greater competition.
Google has characterized these proposed remedies as 'extreme' and at odds with the law, arguing they could stifle innovation. This legal action represents a significant threat to Google's core business and its integrated ecosystem of products and services.
