Movie studios were forced to divest themselves of their theater chains,
because they controlled too much of the product distribution.

Why shouldn’t Google and Microsoft be forced into the same kind of
divestment, and for the same reason?

Maybe because neither of those companies has anywhere near the same level of control of distribution as the companies in your example? With the architecture of the internet, even achieving that level of control is basically impossible.
