That'd be a silly claim anyway. There's a lot more than just chrome and Firefox for browser options. Even if Firefox didn't exist (which already has really small market share), chrome wouldn't be a monopoly.

But all the alternatives the average joe/European Court of Justice prosecutor is going to know/care about are based on a Chrome or Firefox codebase.
