- The DOJ says that Google should sell to Chrome to address the search monopoly
- His investments of AI are safe and Android’s discussions are calm
- Google cares about the impacts on national security
Although the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) has eliminated its proposal for the disinversion of AI for Google, which could have seen the technological giant forced to sell its AI investments (including a multi -million dollar participation in anthropic), the company still faces an uncertain future on its Chrome browser.
The Department of Justice continues to seek a court order for Google to sell its popular browser as part of a broader effort to address its alleged monopoly of the search market.
Google has not been completely unharmed from the AI saga, and now it is required that the company notify the government of future investments of AI.
Google could have to sell Chrome
The DOJ has the support of 38 general prosecutors of the State in its attempt to divide Google of its popular Chrome browser, which represents two thirds (66.3%) of all worldwide browser sessions (through Statcounter).
An extract of the executive summary of the final judgment reviewed the plaintiffs (through PakGazette) says: “Google’s behavior presents a genuine danger to freedom in the market and solid competition in our economy.”
A previously shared Google spokesman with Techradar Pro: “We routinely meet with the regulators, even with the Department of Justice to discuss this case. As we have said publicly, we are concerned that current proposals damage the US economy and national security. “
We have asked Google for a comment about the latest developments, but we have not yet received an answer.
Google has tried to reach an agreement that would see it loosening its exclusivity and the predetermined search engine deals with Apple’s tastes. It is not clear how successful that argument was in the eyes of the court.
In addition, the DOJ has loosened its position on the property of Google de Android, the mobile operating system that represents almost three quarters (72%) of the global smartphone market (through separate figures from statcounter).
