Google could be forced to sell Chrome

Top Justice Department antitrust officials have decided to ask a judge to force Alphabet’s Google to sell off its Chrome browser in what would be a historic crackdown on one of the world’s biggest tech companies.

The department will ask the judge, who ruled in August that Google illegally monopolized the search market, to require measures related to artificial intelligence and its Android smartphone operating system, according to people familiar with the plans.
 
Apple and Microsoft wouldn't like this ruling for the implication
