It turns out that as soon as the US Ministry of Justice more persistently demanded the separation of Google “to fight monopolism”, which, among other things, involves the sale of the Chrome browser, the company immediately followed the offer from another search giant, which, according to many analysts, is the main competitor of Google, Search.com. This writes, including Android Police.
However, in the news headings around the world, Google’s offer is being discussed about the purchase of Chrome for $ 34.5 billion by the Perplexity startup – a search engine operating on AI. At the same time, Search.com is also a search platform with generative artificial intelligence. This market player offered to buy Chrome for $ 35 billion.
Unlike Perplexity, a Search.com search engine for buying a Chrome was supported by JP Morgan’s financial holding. But Search.com is not an independent company, but a division of the developer of AI Public Good, which intends to make changes to Chrome if it is possible to purchase a browser.
The company’s press release says that Search.com promises something revolutionary: the distribution of income between users is a reward for using a browser or something similar, reducing advertising and getting rid of its obsession.
“Given that the antimonopoly policy of the Ministry of Justice can force Google to act, this chess match for a billion dollars can change the entire Internet for Christmas,” the Public Good press release said.
