Yahoo Wants to Buy Chrome to Take on Google's Search Monopoly

In Google's antitrust trial, Yahoo expressed interest in acquiring Google's Chrome browser. Yahoo sees browsers as a crucial distribution channel for search engines, believing that owning Chrome would significantly boost its search market share. While Yahoo is developing its own browser prototype, acquiring Chrome would be a faster route to scale. The deal would cost tens of billions of dollars, but Yahoo's parent company, Apollo Global Management, is backing the potential acquisition.
