The US government wants Google to sell its Chrome web browser.
-
Google will not be allowed to favor its own search engine on Android phones.
-
Google must be more transparent about its advertising prices.
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has made these proposals to reduce Google’s dominance in the search engine market. The DOJ believes Google has been unfair to its competitors and wants to change that. A US court recently ruled that Google had broken the law by maintaining a monopoly.
Google disagrees with the proposals, saying they are extreme and could harm users. The company is worried that the changes could threaten user privacy and slow down the development of artificial intelligence.
The final decision on the proposals will be made next year. If the proposals are accepted, Google will have to make big changes to its business.
