Lit. It's a good ask although it's not clear what separation means here. Not going to hold my breath, the big corpos seem to usually win these kind of games.
Chrome is now owned by a separate conpany with the same major stock holders.
It's like they're a company pretending to be another company, disguised as another company. Tropic Thunder all the way down.
Chrome is now owned by a company, owned by a company, owned by another company, that is owned by Google.
And even in the case where there is actual separation, and competition, it will only be temporary!
If they split Google, MS, Apple, Meta and Amazon all simultaneously, with some condition for the splinters to not merge back, and that contaminating the results of their allowed mergers, there may be good outcomes.
Or there may not. It's about people, not laws, after all.
Why doesn’t this have sprint?
Sprint was not a splinter of ATT.
