DOJ: Google must sell Chrome, Android could be next (arstechnica.com)

The DOJ is asking the court to force Google to promptly and fully divest itself of Chrome, along with any data or other assets required for its continued operation. It is essentially aiming to take the Chrome user base—consisting of some 3.4 billion people—away from Google and hand it to a competitor. The government will vet any potential buyers to ensure the sale does not pose a national security threat. During the term of the judgment, Google would not be allowed to release any new browsers. However, it may continue to contribute to the open source Chromium project.

They’ve only pushed garbage with their majority market share.

That is not really true. I am as skeptical of their intention as the next guy but they have also pushed a lot of security enhancements and other decent standards (among some more crappy ones).
