Perplexity offers to buy Google's Chrome browser for $34.5 billion

cnbc.com Ashley Capoot 2025-11-29 03:24:02

The authorities tracked the crypto as the cybercriminals moved it repeatedly across virtual currency exchange accounts, depositing and withdrawing it to obfuscate the trace. Eventually, the amount was frozen when it reached a cooperating exchange. The action was made possible thanks to evidence collected by the U.S.

AI company Perplexity has offered to buy Google’s Chrome browser for $34.5 billion, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal. The offer is being characterized as a “longshot,” especially since Perplexity itself is only valued at about $18 billion, according to the newspaper, but the idea is rooted in a very real problem for Google: A judge is currently considering whether Google’s parent company Alphabet should be forced to sell Chrome over antitrust concerns.

This was SpaceX's second launch of satellites for Amazon, which is developing a constellation to deliver low-latency broadband Internet around the world.
