Antimonopoly action is good for the market, but let's be honest nobody will make a better chrome, at best they will inject ads or turn it to a walled garden. It will be a bad thing in the end for us web developers , and we will lose the last open platform.
Why is this considered a good move anyway? The obvious way to split google is to separate the buy side from the sell side of ads market
I haven't been using Chrome for a while because of the unacceptable privacy issues.
"We will lose the last open platform" - umm, have you heard about Mozilla Firefox? It works really well.
In recent years, otherwise proud nerds have become absurdly hostile to the idea that Firefox could function as a daily browser.
Yet I often forget which one I'm using until I look at the shape of the tabs.
