Google has gotten its first taste of remedies that Donald Trump’s Department of Justice plans to pursue to break up the tech giant’s monopoly in search.

~~Wasn't this all started before Trump was even elected?~~ It actually began October 2020, then in 2023 another case was brought up. Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if the Trump administration gave Google a break here after some poorly disguised bribes. It's too soon to be claiming they'll do anything. Weird phrasing, considering what's happening.

jk, Google will pay Trump to somehow undo this.

I couldn't gather from the article, but when exactly is Google supposed to "fully divest itself of Chrome"? It's it's by 2030 or "at Google's discretion", it'll just never happen.

Edit:

A final ruling in the search monopoly trial is expected in August 2025.

Report: DOJ wants to force Google Chrome sale, Android de-bundling

Lol, never happening. Trump won't let it.

This will be really interesting, especially given the Firefox fiasco and the fact that chrome is open source. Assuming it stays open source will Google just fork it and make their own chromium browser? Guess we'll see
