Lit. It's a good ask although it's not clear what separation means here. Not going to hold my breath, the big corpos seem to usually win these kind of games.

Chrome is now owned by a company, owned by a company, owned by another company, that is owned by Google.

see history of telco consolidation after a monopoly breakup in 1984

Chrome is now owned by a separate conpany with the same major stock holders.
