The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has proposed radical changes to Google as part of its ongoing antitrust lawsuit against the company. These potential changes include splitting off Chrome or Android, forcing Google to share search queries with competitors, limiting how it promotes its search, and changing the online advertising market. Google's vice president of regulatory affairs argues that these measures would hurt consumers and innovation, and warns they go beyond the scope of the court case.
