No, not every company can afford to Bulldoze the competition in the Browser Market because they have indefinite deep pockets from the Ad Business.

If that unfair advantage goes away there will be more competition again in the Browser Segment .

Also Marketshare can grow and shrink quick

I'd also imagine Google won't be prevented from owning a browser indefinitely - if it's still worth it they'll create a new browser and try to recapture the market, further diversifying the market.

With the expected costs of a web browser by the general public being $0, what company would want it that isn't going to do that? Even Firefox survives off ad revenue. There is no "browser market", there's an ad market.
