Breaking up Google won't necessarily do anything to end anti-union activity.
Google's pieces could be just as anti-union as Google itself.

Once you're subject to the kinds of invasive scrutiny that a govt mandates break up demands, it tends to be hard to get out from under it.

Genuinely curious, why?
The worst aspect- the ad network- is also its most profitable. I am sure if search and ads were separated, they would find a way to create some sweetheart deals that keep operations not too terribly changed.
Android would likely become less coupled to various google services, but I don't think most people actually want that- at least, I imagine most Android users would prefer Google maps to whatever else is out there
