Alphabet's Google faces a historic trial on Monday as U.S. antitrust enforcers in Washington seek to force the tech giant to sell off its Chrome browser as part of a bid to restore competition to the market for online search engines. The U.S. Department of Justice is heading into trial after two major legal victories against Google, having won a ruling in August that Google monopolized search. The trial comes on the heels of a win in a Virginia court on Thursday where a judge ruled in a separate antitrust case that Google maintains an illegal monopoly in advertising technology. The outcome of the trial could fundamentally reshape the internet by unseating Google as the go-to portal for information online. Google plans to call witnesses from Mozilla, Verizon and Apple, which launched a failed bid to intervene in the case.
