Google says government proposals would "harm America’s consumers."
Says the company that couldn't stand by the core value "don't be evil".
Musk will be champing at the bit to own a controlling share of both of these. It disgusts me to agree with them but they're right. This is the single worst possible time to try and push this through.

Which is why it's happening now, I agree.
But we, the non-billionaires are still better off after any monopoly split. It's hard to express how incredibly bad powerful monopolies are. The fact that another billionaire will be the buyer sucks, but it's no reason to back away from forcing the legally required split.
Chrome is a monopoly by itself already. And forcing Google to sell, only to have Microsoft buying it is actually worse then the current situation.
as if america's consumers aren't quite willing to be harmed at this point
