The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is intensifying efforts to compel Google to divest its browser Chrome, potentially including Android, in order to break its perceived monopoly in the search engine market.
The DOJ's revised filing, submitted alongside a coalition of 38 state attorneys general, aims to promote fair competition and address Google's dominance in online search.
The latest proposal removes the demand for Google to divest its investments in artificial intelligence, instead requiring the company to inform regulators before making significant changes in its AI operations.
While the immediate sale of Android is not being pushed, it remains an option for future action if the current measures do not effectively enhance competition.
