Google Keeps Chrome, but the Antitrust Fight Isn't Over

Summary

In September 2025, Judge Amit Mehta declined to force Google to sell Chrome but ordered it to end exclusive deals that make its search engine the default on phones and browsers.
The remedy also requires Google to share some search and user-interaction data with rivals, after a 2024 ruling that it illegally monopolized search.
In 2026, the Justice Department and 35 states appealed, arguing the penalties were too weak and that tougher, structural remedies are needed.

The question

Only breaking up Google can restore real competition in search.
