Amid Google's monopoly trial with the U.S. Department of Justice, Yahoo expressed interest in acquiring Google Chrome if required to sell it. Yahoo's Senior Executive, Brian Provost, stated that acquiring Chrome could boost Yahoo's search market share from 3% to double digits, with potential funding from Apollo Global Management. The acquisition conversation includes other contenders like OpenAI and Perplexity, although Google warns that any divestiture could disrupt the web browser ecosystem significantly.
