What does Chrome have to do with search? π€
Google is the default search engine for chrome, and chrome is the single most popular browser at about 95% market share.
Um, that wouldn't change if Google "sells Chrome", though.
Firefox uses Google Search as a default, so does every Samsung phone (and most other Android devices).
Unless the DOJ is telling everyone not to implement a default search engine (and let the user decide upon first opening the browser), then who owns Chrome really doesn't change much.
This is the only thing that makes sense, but "sell Chrome" is a laughable request.
What search engine does Chrome, by far and away the most used browser be it on phone or PC, use?
