The DoJ asked a federal court late Wednesday to force Google to sell Chrome. The request follows the ruling in August that found Google had illegally maintained a monopoly in online search.

Beyond the sale of Chrome, the government asked Judge Mehta to give Google a choice: either sell Android or bar Google from making its services mandatory on phones that use Android to operate. If Google broke those terms, or the remedies failed to improve competition, the government could force the company to sell Android at a later date.

The government also asked the judge to stop Google from entering into paid agreements with Apple and others to be the automatically selected search engine on smartphones and in browsers.
