Google regularly abuses their market share dominance in browsers in order to push for changes to web standards that benefit them, such as their web integrity api (which would have prevented blocking ads). This is monopolistic behavior, and the largest ad company on the planet shouldn’t get to decide web standards.
As a side note: both firefox and Samsung are paid handsomely (just like apple) to have Google as a default search engine. This also is monopolistic behavior, if you built a better product than them then you couldn’t outspend them to get to the same position.
Oh, yeah, don’t get me wrong, Google is highly unethical, and I avoid any and all Google related products whenever possible.
Selling Chrome, however, doesn’t really stop them from doing damage.
The part about not allowing them to bribe pay other companies to use their search is a much better idea.
And regarding their influence over the internet… we need stronger regulation to prevent any company from having that much control over an essential service.
Alright then I’ll do you one better:
