Just this week, it was announced that, despite being declared a monopolist last year, Google would not be forced to sell Chrome, and the reaction has certainly not been all positive. Politicians, CEOs, and even Tim Sweeney are not happy about what is being perceived as just "a slap on the wrist" for its illegalities.
As noted by the Guardian, Barry Lynn, the executive director of the Open Market Institute thinktank, says, “Judge Mehta’s order that Google share search data with competitors and cease entering into exclusive contracts does nothing to right those wrongs. Instead, it lets Google and every other monopolist know that even the most egregious violation of law will be met with a slap on the wrist.”
