Oct 8 (Reuters) - The U.S. Department of Justice said on

Tuesday it was considering asking a judge to force Alphabet's

Google to end exclusive agreements that the court

earlier ruled helped give the Big Tech firm a monopoly in online

search.

The Justice Department's broad proposals are the next step

in a landmark case that has the potential to reshape how

Americans find information on the Internet after a judge found

Google, which processes 90% of U.S. internet searches, had built

an illegal monopoly.

Prosecutors are expected to file a more detailed proposal

with the court by Nov. 20.
