And YouTube. It’s time to break up all these big tech companies.
Why… that’s essentially seeding the AI race to Chinese companies
@@LindelweJNcube ceding
And search engine. Got annoyed with google dumb filtering out results.
agreed, they have to many inlets into people lives
@@LindelweJNcube explain your theory, china’s not as advanced as you suspect
Department of injustice and corruption
DOJ TRASH
This makes sense. They have a search engine, a browser, YouTube and god knows what else. I use Firefox.
Also Google Chrome is bad for phones. It has so much memory and storage it slows things down. Duck Duck Go is the best but you will not be able to go back to a previous page on a tab if the browser restarts. I have been disabling Chrome.
Yeah firefox would be crushed by this.
No one knows how anything works on here…
Folks, this petty nonsense is what the GOP is focused on…not ending homelessness, providing mental health services for vets, or finding a remedy for the ongoing housing shortage…they’re worried about Google, where trans people pee, and imposing their religion on others. In five years, remember this is what y’all voted for.
Biden DOJ.
Google will win because no one is forced to use a web browser. Biden Admin keep losing these cases.
You tube is the MOST ILL INFORMED MEDIA OUTLET!! THEY ALLOW NYONE TO PLACE AI VIDEOS OF FALSE INFORMATION…..SHUT ALL SOCIAL MEDIA DWN.
Must have helped Trump win.
Prob a trump judge! Just like in Texas with overtime being taken away
@@1234crevisthis is Bidens DOJ until Jan 20 …. Don’t let your TDS make you look like a 🤡
Control of the software and hardware needed to navigate the internet is an obvious Monopoly
And what’s wrong with monopolies??

@shawyonsharifi3394 I can smell your kuntt from here
@@shawyonsharifi3394 you serious?
Americans won’t like this. We love our monopolies.
I absolutely like that everything in my gmail is used by Youtube to show me the crap I deserve to see. And by the way, maybe the other Chrome developer companies should be put in charge of its future, that would probably be Microsoft, sure that would go well.
baby, give it up
Yeah stop eating my 8GB 🐏
incriminating evidence right, hurry hide it
As someone said Stronger Together
Ah so this is why the Google Legal Team has stopped responding to emails for a month and a half…
What about the browsers v8 engine which is one of two that us functional engines for the modern web 😭
The DOJ is stupid.
Good
Idiots
Americans are not the world let them have their product just be better!
Google will never be better
Doj is bs
I don’t agree.
I wish we all still had Internet Explorer, I was one of the last people using it until Microsoft shut it down 2 years ago, and since then, I’ve been using the built-in Edge browser as my main web browser because Google Chrome Eats up SO MUCH RAM!!!
We called it “internet exploiter” for years in the security space, because you’re 100% going to get hacked using IE.
I really like Chrome, and I would argue against the ruling since Chrome provides important services and unlimited cloud storage. Having Chrome as the default and norm also makes it easier for web designers to integrate their projects with it, ignoring the headache of programming for numerous browsers. What a weird time to utilize anti-trust laws against Google when banking is so bad in this country.
Prolly the point.
Microsoft is better in everyway except for YT
More browsers is the last tech item that I want to have many choices of. All the extensions chrome already has and the support it has is great. Its just a browser too, an engine pretty much
Google Browser.
Theres alot of browsers. Samsungs browser is on all Samsung device. Edge is on every windows pc and works better than chrome. Also safari is on all ios devices. Why are those allowed and not google chrome?
Because those other companies aren’t also a search engine
@anonymoushuman8443 apple has spotlight and Microsoft has Bing. So you’re wrong.
YT is owned by Russia and India
There are plenty of web browsers other than Chrome. It’s not an uncompetitive market because most people have to go out of their way to download chrome on their device.
This is not helpful. There are so many other browsers available, but the vast majority of people find it easier to have the one connected to the rest of Google.
Neo-Confederates are after American corporations like Google that enable We the People.
Has the current dying US government gone mad? If Google loses Chrome, Google will quickly go bankrupt. Let’s hope Trump reverses all this.
thanks for reminding me to write down my enemy list /srs
i’m going to spare y’all from a wall of text and just say to read Contra Chrome. it sums up all of my problems with this company way better than i could
Everyone likes how everything is working. Just leave them alone.
What U can learn from a book 📚 U can’t find on Google
Safari is not supported on ANY device but Apple. Wank Off
I don’t agreed with this I love Google Chrome I spent my time searching for interesting places and including Barcelona in Spain this is beyond outrageous
Linux must buy Android from google and add any antivirus software of any kind…
Fubu tv must Buy Youtube tv
Antivirus software must move to Taiwan…..
Microsoft probably involved
Sell YouTube!!!! Make YouTube like it was in middle school! We can have everything again! New profile pics. DMs star ratings. We can upload all kinds of stuff. None of that copy right stuff that showed up in 2011. Please! We had background images! And colors to our channels too! It was amazing! SELL YOUTUBE! Please!
Are only pro google comments allowed here?
This administration needs to be replaced immediately. Merck Garland should step down asap. There’s something fishy about this forcing Google to sell its chrome. How about Safari of Apple? How about Opera browser?
Why are you on favor of mega corporations? you don’t understand that they are doing this because Google pays other companies like Android, Apple and others so that their search engine is already pre-installed. And that is anti-competitive, if they played fair without having to waste their money to harm their competitors, the government would not be telling them anything.
You know that Google is currently one of the worst search engines since the first results it shows are advertising and then to keep you in its search engine it does not show you the best results, and they can allow it since they currently have no fear of losing users.
There may be other search engines, but no one is stupid enough not to realize that the general public probably doesn’t even know they exist.
Unless you are one of the Google executives, or a meat-rider from the mega corporations, I don’t know why anyone would be against this.
Breaking up Google as much as we want it it will send us back to Stone Age 😂😅…maybe youtube but it won’t survive without Google
Youtube will be taken away from Google and will be nationalized.
Then make Apple give up Safari, and Microsoft give up Edge/Explorer. I love Google, leave them alone.
I use Microsoft Explorer more than Google except for YT
what part of chrome owning 95% of the market you don’t get?
@@kurikuraconkuritas I said I use Microsoft the most except for YT wish Microsoft still had a video platform
Microsoft Edge is essentially Chrome under the hood. It’s built on Google’s open-source browser engine, Chromium—the same platform that powers Chrome (hence the name “Chromium”).
@@kxmode Microsoft Edge runs off Windows colonel Microsoft inventented and owns Windows it has nothing to do with chrome
Garbage this is not right
Chrome is an open-source browser built on the Chromium engine. This engine has been adopted by various companies, like Epic Games for their Paragon game launcher and the Epic Games Store client, as well as Microsoft for creating Edge. So, even if the government forces Google to break off the Chrome browser, they could easily fork Chromium and create a new browser—maybe they’d call it Xilver (pronounced “zilver”).
Nothing compared to what is next
