The U.S. Department of Justice reportedly wants Google to sell the Chrome browser. Here's why that could prove tricky for consumers and rival browser makers.

The US will urge a judge to make Google-parent company Alphabet sell its widely used Chrome browser in a major antitrust crackdown on the internet giant, according to a media report Monday.

Federal antitrust officials are trying to force Google to sell off its Chrome web browser as part of an antitrust ruling and are no longer targeting an Android sell-off, according to a new report from Bloomberg.
