    Why stop at chrome. Break off Android too. They are shitting all over that now.

      Separate Apple software and silicon as well. Break them all up! But honestly to I’d rather them start with our food system. Break up the conglomerates, break up the grocery stores, etc… I can live if I don’t buy a new phone or use Google search or Chrome.

        Separate the media portions of these companies as well; apple and amazon music, tv, streaming into separate entities.

        Don’t simply allow them to be purchased by another huge conglomerate or corporation like perplexity or openai, split them into their own entities. Stop companies purchasing each other to avoid this mess from repeating and avoid monopolies

        Or just nationalize these companies. Trump already started the process with intel

          A 10% stake with no board representation or even the option to influence the makeup of the board is hardly a step towards nationalization. The US is just along for the ride even if they drive it off a cliff.

      would a new owner make it better? they would need to be profitable somehow, especially if they are not using it to sell pixel phones

        Once. Just once I want to have a happy thought to creep into my mind instead of this hell of probability. As example. Valve buys Android and runs their steamOS through it.
