Requirements that officials are preparing to propose include that Google separate Android from Search and Google Play, but without trying to force Google to sell off Android. Another requirement would say it has to share more information with advertisers and that it “give them more control over where their ads appear,” the outlet writes.
Bloomberg also reports that officials will recommend that the company “give websites more options to prevent their content from being used by Google’s artificial intelligence products.” Finally, they will reportedly recommend “a ban on the type of exclusive contracts that were at the center of the case against Google.”
To whom, though? Who would reasonably purchase Chrome, if it were a sale and not a spinoff? Are there any companies where that would feel like good news (because it’s that particular company, and not in the “at least it’s not as big a megacorp” sense)?
