Google at risk of breakup: DOJ Antitrust measures target Chrome, Android, and AI

- The US Department of Justice (DOJ) may ask Google to divest some of its business units, including Chrome and Android. - Prosecutors are considering measures such as barring Google from collecting sensitive user data and making its search results available to competitors. - The proposed remedies could reduce Google's revenue and give competitors like Microsoft Bing and DuckDuckGo more space to grow. - The DOJ's AI-related remedies could harm Google's competitive position by restricting access to valuable data for AI training. - The proposed remedies represent the largest US antitrust action since the 1999 Microsoft case. - Investors appear unconvinced that a forced breakup of Google will happen.
