US judge orders Google to share search data with competitors

The decision handed down on Tuesday also rejects prosecutors’ bid to make the internet giant sell off its popular Chrome browser.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai had expressed concerns at a trial in April that the data-sharing measures sought by the United States Department of Justice could enable Google’s rivals to reverse-engineer its technology.
