Revenue sharing for search default and/or preferential treatment - dead. Google's tens of billions to Apple - dead (last I saw it's about 15% of Apple's profits). Reminder, this all needs to be argued and approved by Court and then will get appealed. Still far off. /3 [image]

As it relates to Android, here is how DOJ has set it up. Forced divestiture would be option that swiftly, efficiently, and decisively strikes at the locus of some — anticompetitive conduct at issue here" but we're ok with tight behavioral remedies with option to divest if they…

Yep, selling Chrome would hurt the education market (Chromebooks!) and potentially ruin the browser market which is largely built on Chromium. — Google maintains Chromium partly to dodge competition concerns around Chrome 🤷♂️ [embedded post]

I don't see how this could work. Who would download Chrome if it's not integrated with Google services? And a Chromebook? They're effectively shutting it down + Firefox too, since they depend financially on Google. [embedded post]

If Chrome is owned by someone else, is Google allowed to have *any* browser option that they do own? Even on Android? Would they have to use just a generic, open-source browser? The best of those are built on Chromium. Maybe they could build one and call it ‘Chrome 2’?

And so stupid because there's plenty of other browser alternatives: Edge, Safari, DuckDuckGo, Tor, Firefox, and probably more I can't think of right now. Chrome just does it the best. It's not a monopoly it's the chosen browser.

I realize I have been, and remain, in the minority on this, but I don't see how you read this any other way than DOJ wants Apple to enter the search business, can't force them to since they are not party to the suit, so are seeking remedies that among other things draw them in. […
