If Google was forced to sell off Chrome, I wonder what the ramifications would be for Chromebooks. Chromebooks have become quite popular in K12 schools. I don’t see how they could continue to run or why Google would have any continued interest in this device ruling.
Chromebooks in schools are probably already illegal in a lot of places that use them, and the sole purpose is to lock in kids to the Google ecosystem early. (Apple used to heavily focus on education for the same reason back in the day.)
There's an arguable point if Google doesn't give up Chromebooks anyways, the DOJ should force them to.
My children basically are required by government to use Google products in school unless I want to pay for private school, which is kinda insane on its face.
