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
what is the problem?
Good.
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.
How exactly would it deter competition more than Google owning it?
I can't see how those dots are connected.
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
