The United States can be considered the most capitalist country in the world, and their market is open for anyone to join in to make money. But they are also seen as not particularly fond of companies holding monopolies in any one market, and more recently, seen as wanting to topple the online monopoly currently held by Alphabet, particularly Google.
Recently it was reported that the United States government wants to ask the country's judiciary to issue an order to separate some of Google's businesses, such as Google Search and Google Chrome to curb the online search monopoly held by the company.
Google Search appears to now process 90 percent of Americans' online searches through a combination of Google search services, use of the Google Chrome web browser, and possibly even through Android devices, which use that browser as the default browser.
The break-up of these businesses from Google is expected to break the monopoly and will give other online search companies the opportunity to offer their search services.
This was seen after Google was found to have built an illegal monopoly, and recently lost an antitrust suit initiated by the United States government. The judge presiding over this case said that technically Google has no opponent in this arena because the entire online ecosystem, especially in terms of search technology up to the devices used, is powered by them.
It is quite interesting to see how Google will try to prevent this from complicating their business, because it is expected that what the United States government wants is for Google Search, Android, and even Chrome to operate as three different entities that do not fall under the umbrella of the company such as Google or Alphabet, which is the parent company of Google.
