Washington, March 5, 2025: Alphabet’s Google has urged the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to reconsider its efforts to break up the company amid ongoing antitrust investigations into its search and advertising practices. Google contends that proposed measures, such as divesting assets like the Chrome web browser and ending default search engine agreements, could harm the U.S. economy and national security.
The DOJ’s trial to determine appropriate remedies is scheduled for April, with a ruling expected in August. This legal action reflects the government’s ongoing efforts to regulate big tech companies and address concerns about monopolistic practices.
