      lol. Of all the things that are never going to happen, this is never going to happen the most. I find it cute when someone writes articles like this. Ether they are pretending America is not an oligarchy or they are ignorant of the fact.

      > The agency and the states have settled on recommending that Google be required to license the results and data from its popular search engine

      That sounds completely insane to make search companies pay everyone they link to. It would only make the internet more monopolized

      Who’s going to buy it? Probably Microsoft? That’d be even worse.

      Of all the monopolies this may be the one I care the absolute least about.

      Is there any reason why I should care that Google has its own browser? When I have Firefox, edge as viable options?

      I bet elmo will buy it to destroy it with propaganda and to spy on chrome users. Gj.

      Lol, just a nonsensical solution, on so many levels… Chrome, in no direct ways, makes Google any money, it’s basically a loss leader Google gives away as an effective portal to their services. So it’s worth billions to Google, but basically zero (actually, a negative value, since it cost money to maintain) value to anyone else… Who exactly is going to step up and buy it for billions then? I guess if you were to squint really hard, you could maybe make a case for Amazon or Netflix, but those are pretty flimsy business cases for shelling out billions of dollars for something that’s just going to bleed money from you

      People here are insane to discredit just how powerful chrome is for Google. 

      It’s the largest gateway into Google services, Chrome is a massive tracker that fuels Google analytics. 

      Everything about chrome pushes people more and more into Google services. 

      Having a third party decouple chrome from Google would be a massive victory for consumers.

      Yeah… then they’ll make Apple sell off the iPhone and make the pope sell off Catholicism.

      Monopolies are a bad thing. Breaking them up benefits society. The break up of AT&T is a big reason why you have a vibrant cell phone marketplace, among other benefits.

      What they should do is make Chromium independent of Google and make it the base browser for whatever future the Web holds.

      Google being forced to sell Chrome is an insane decision.

      Ummm, they know you can just install another fucking browser right ? Ashamed tax dollars were spent on this and not going after monopolistic ISPs

      AI powered search is honestly the future and Google doesn’t have a lead there. Guess we’ll see

      I remember the state of web browsers before Chrome. It was ugly. This is ill-advised regulation.

      What % constitutes a monopoly? I am sure Microsoft has a few that need to be split as well.

      Chrome *cast* should go with it. I wish Miracast won. Fuck Airplay too.
