DOJ brings down the hammer on Google, tells it to sell Chrome and rein-in A
 

• The Department of Justice has called for Google to sell its Chrome browser and overhaul its search practices to address its monopoly.
• Two options have been proposed for Android: immediate action to fix monopolistic practices or prolonged court oversight.
• Google plans to appeal the final ruling, arguing that the proposal could harm consumers and the tech industry.

The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has officially called for Google to sell its Chrome browser and make significant changes to Android to address concerns over its dominance in online search.

In a new court filing made Wednesday, the DOJ has argued that Google should not only be forced to divest Chrome but also share search results and data with rivals and adopt several other measures to level the playing field.
