Google is really getting it from all angles:

  • House Antitrust complaints (focusing on search dominance and censorship)
  • DOJ Investigation of advertising market
  • DOJ Investigation of Search
  • Whatever the State AGs are going to focus on

I’m not sure a divestiture of Chrome, Doubleclick, or any of their web-based advertising ecosystem would have a meaningful impact on the company, but there are so many unknowns right now.
