(Reuters) -- Alphabet's Google must sell its Chrome browser, share data and search results with rivals, and take other measures -- including possibly selling Android -- to end its monopoly on online search, prosecutors argued to a judge on Wednesday.

The measures presented by the Department of Justice are part of a landmark case in Washington which has the potential to reshape how users find information.
