The point is simple: Google has a monopoly in search and has used its control of Chrome to maintain that monopoly. There is no monopoly in browsers, and the DOJ has evaluated that selling off Chrome will not adversely affect the browser market. If we go from Chrome having 66% market share to Edge having 66%, but in the interim the search market has seen more entrants competing fairly, wouldn't that be a benefit?

Then a year later Microsoft will be sued for anti competitive practices involving edge.

If we just keep selling the browser market to the next trillion dollar company that's not going to fix anything

The DOJ logic is its going to fix the search market! Are you seriously believing that it will take a year for people to give Microsoft a monopoly position in browsers (which Google still hasn't achieved) when Google divest itself from Chrome?

Get real, the DOJ forcing Google to get rid of Chrome is one of the best tech news in years!
