Federal prosecutors hinted at a breakup of Google in proposals to a federal judge set on stripping the Mountain View technology giant of its monopoly over internet search, but analysts believe court-ordered fixes will stop short of splitting up the company.

Google, officially deemed an illegal monopoly in August by the judge overseeing the U.S. Justice Department’s antitrust lawsuit against the company, described a list of possible changes to its business as “radical” and against the interests of consumers and businesses.
