“It would strike me as an over-ask,” said Kevin Walkush at Jensen Investment Management, which holds Google stock and is skeptical a Chrome divestiture will happen.
So maybe not the best guy to be asking.
Given that even Mozilla (who has significantly less resources than Google) had the ability to create a second web engine and then abandon it, it would be dumb to think that Google doesn’t have at least 2 or 3 teams working on different browsers or engines for no reason.
Unless they’re prohibited from creating another web browser ever again (which would most likely be a bad idea), they can probably come up with a working browser in less than two years
Servo was a research project for mozilla, the cool stuff in it was shoved into firefox

the proposal included a 5 year ban on any browsering

I guess 5 years is not too bad, but the judge would probably never agree to the ban.
Google does not yet have to sell chrome. Many titles of articles are misleading.
I don’t like google owning chrome but if they’d force google to sell it and not apple or microsoft to sell theirs, I’d be against it. It would only harm google and deter competition
harm google
what is the problem?
It would only harm google
Good.
and deter competition
Perhaps not. They’ve “deterred” competition for years. Maybe with them being pushed back a little it’d give some room for other companies to breath for once.
89℅ of all search traffic is through google search. I dont like microsoft or apple, but 89% is ridiculously high and a monopolistic by all means. I hope google sells chrome
How exactly would it deter competition more than Google owning it?
I can’t see how those dots are connected.
