Google doesn't want to sell Chrome and Android, proposes swapping Google bloat for other bloat

Remedies proposed include more flexibility in setting the default search engine and decoupling other Google apps from being preloaded alongside Search or Chrome.

The US Department of Justice recently called for Google to sell Chrome and make significant changes to Android (or sell it as an alternative) to tackle Google's monopoly in online search. Google obviously isn't happy with such a proposal, as these sweeping changes would fundamentally alter the tech landscape, for better or for worse. Google is now proposing remedies that are still comprehensive and address the issues but aren't as allegedly overreaching as the DOJ's proposals.
