By “sell,” they could also mean ending up having Chrome just split off from Google, as a new, independent entity that is its own company, without anybody needing to buy it in the first place.
Selling user data, selling ad placement, subscriptions for paid services, enterprise-grade support contracts, and the like.
They could also take an approach similar to Google, branching back out from being just a browser into a suite of related tools that Chrome can then convince users to switch to (similar to how Chrome gets users to not just use Google search, but also services like Gmail too.)
What company could actually afford to buy it other than Google, Meta, or Amazon? Unless they are forced to sell it at a loss, which is fine with me.

How exactly is this company going to make any money?
I assume by continuing to sell data.

Hear me out… Valve
With all due respect for Valve, they don’t need this. They exist in their niche, and they’re exceptionally good at doing their work
Chromium engine for half life 3
Valve already use CEF extensively in their client
Oracle, sun, tencent, tita…
oracle would create MANGO (Microsoft,Apple,nvidia,google and Oracle)
Broadcom
Microsoft is probably drooling at the prospect. They’ve been trying to get that IE monopoly back since this happened to them.
