I'd say the monopoly Google has with Chrome is way more threatening than in the early 2000's with MS and IE. That threat resulted in an anti-trust lawsuit, but not a peep from any government about the destruction Google is doing.

Took the words right out of my mouth. I don't even know that eu cares. Google is as evil as everyone feared if not worse. Apple is pretty bad too, not even allowing any browser but their own on mobile. People don't realize it, but browser choice is actually a huge deal when it comes to causing damage to society (or protecting it)
