The US Department of Justice (DoJ) has asked the Federal Court to put pressure on Google to sell the Chrome browser. Google’s owner company Alphabet Inc. Chrome is the most used browser in the world. But it is repeatedly accused of creating and abusing its monopoly. Now the US Justice Department has proposed to solve this problem that the court should appoint Alphabet Inc. Order to sell the browser to Google so that Google’s monopoly on the Internet search market and related advertisements can be ended. But the question is, if this happens, what will happen if Alphabet is forced to sell Chrome? Will this have any impact on the internet world and how will it affect India?
Will Google be able to stop this is a different question?
But before considering these ifs and buts, the important question is whether this will even happen. The company’s intentions seem to be to stop this move. Google said that if it is forced to sell Chrome, the move will harm its consumers and businesses. Now it remains to be seen whether Google will be able to prove this and whether it will be able to stop this action on the basis of this. Or will the US court really be able to force the company to sell Chrome?
It became difficult for competitors to survive
It is being claimed that Google pushed out rivals by striking deals with Apple, Mozilla, Samsung and others to be the default search engine that appears when users open a new tab in their smartphones or web browsers. In such a situation, it seems impossible for any new company to survive in the browser and mobile operating system market, which is a cause for concern.

Big companies like Monopoly and Google
In recent years, regulators have tried to prevent the biggest tech companies from getting out of control. The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Google over its dominance in advertising technology. At the same time, Apple has increased the compulsion for consumers to buy devices and software together. The Federal Trade Commission has also filed lawsuits against Amazon and Meta. He is also accused of anti-competitive behavior and suppressing rivals.
What will be the effect of selling chrome??
If it is decided that Google will have to sell Chrome, then it will have many consequences which will significantly impact not only America but the entire world including India. It is believed that this will have a significant impact on the company’s business of 2 trillion dollars i.e. 1Amn690.113 trillion rupees and after this, it can be tightened further on big companies.

Business standards will be affected
The biggest impact of this sale will be on business standards. Because this will inspire action against companies taking advantage of monopoly in other countries including America. More efforts can be seen to improve the environment of healthy competition in the world. In such a situation, people will get to see some new types of products with more features.

This will affect the internet world
Its biggest impact will be seen in the internet world. With the sale of Chrome, people will be free to use any other company’s browser in the products of Apple and many big companies. And using Chrome in Apple will no longer be a compulsion. More competitive things will be seen in the market and India too will not remain untouched by this.
