    Hey look, some boomers who don’t understand tech are trying to do a thing with a tech company. Sell Chrome? What a stupid idea.

      I’m afraid that this is a terrible take. There is nothing to stop them from making it into a separate company. It would break the monopoly because the same people making the browser won’t be the ones earning the ad revenue.

        How does Chrome the company make money?

          That isn’t the point, is it? Why does the government and the people care about the profits of some company?

            How do you sell something with no value. It’s a stupid premise.

            It is the point. There is no benefit to us, as in the world, if this were to happen.

              It’s pretty clear that you don’t understand what antitrust is about. I might suggest you read the Wikipedia article before commenting further. Also you should maybe take a moment to consider why you are taking the side of Google, a terrible and abusive company worth hundreds of billions of dollars. They don’t need your support.

                Pass. I’m not taking sides, I’m looking at the blowback of such a stupid decision. Maybe you should research how important chromium is to open source and stop riding the blanket antitrust chubby.

                  LOL chromium is not important, it isn’t. I know you want it to be, but it’s not. There are plenty of alternatives out there, Firefox being the most obvious one. Really, stop simping for Daddy Google. You sound like an edgy teen.

                    Hello my two braincell friend, Firefox is funded almost entirely by Google.
