The US Department of Justice is currently in the process of conducting a trial involving Google and whether it monopolizes the market with various products. One of the products targeted for separation is Google Chrome.
Regarding this, several parties such as OpenAI, Perplexity and even Yahoo are ready to express their openness to buy the web browser if it has to be sold. At the same time, touching on the price, DuckDuckGo says that Google Chrome may be worth more than $50 billion – which may make them unable to buy it.
Chrome today is ready to become the main web browser used by many around the world. This allows Google to include their search engine as the main search engine, and continue to maintain its position in the market. In addition, many also say that Google collects browsing data through the web browser to better target advertising to users.
This in itself is expected to have a very positive effect on Google, and it may be worth more than $50 billion.
At this time, it has not been ordered to sell it, and the trial process is still ongoing. It is possible that if forced to sell, Google will appeal and take the case to further trial.
