The DOJ's request comes after a judge ruled that Google engaged in anticompetitive practices, particularly through exclusive distribution agreements that reinforced its dominance in search. By targeting the Chrome browser, the DOJ aims to dismantle what it views as a significant barrier to competition in the tech industry. Reports suggest that if the sale is mandated, Chrome could be valued at up to $20 billion.
The U.S. will urge a judge to make Google-parent company Alphabet sell its widely used Chrome browser in a major antitrust crackdown on the internet giant, according to a media report Monday.
