The Department of Justice (DOJ) has proposed that Google divest its Chrome browser as part of addressing alleged antitrust violations. In response, Google has suggested alternative proposals that focus on its financial arrangements with partners like Apple and Mozilla, rather than breaking up its products. Google's proposed remedies include a three-year prohibition on bundling licenses for Chrome, Search, and Google Play with other applications, while still allowing payments for default search placement in browsers. Google plans to appeal a ruling by Judge Amit Mehta that labeled it a monopolist and intends to submit a revised proposal by March 7th before a trial in April.
