Google’s Potential Breakup Predicted in the U.S.
Business
The U.S. Department of Justice is considering the possibility of breaking up Google, reports The Verge. Government lawyers have proposed measures to address Google’s market dominance and restore competition.
The proposal includes both behavioral and structural remedies, with one suggestion being the sale of business segments like Chrome, Android, or Google Play.
In response, Google argued that such measures could exceed court rulings and disrupt the functioning of Chrome and Android, products used by billions of people globally. Few companies, Google claims, could maintain these services at the same level.
In recent months, U.S. courts have repeatedly ruled that Google holds monopolistic control over search engines and app stores, a decision that experts believe could help restore competition in the market.
