US Justice Department asks judge to force Google to sell Chrome internet browser

The US Department of Justice has urged a judge to require Google to sell its Chrome browser, accusing the company of monopolizing the search market. DOJ demands include banning Google from re-entering the browser market for five years, ending default search engine agreements, and restricting acquisitions in AI or ad tech. Google plans to appeal the ruling.
