Today I read this article...
California AG blasts ‘greedy corporations’ in $700M settlement with Google - POLITICO
"More significantly, Bonta said, the settlement requires Google to change its practices, including by allowing Android users to install apps on their devices from third-party stores outside the Google Play Store."
Dear Mr Bonta,
Google Android has allowed third-party app installs and app-stores since 2008, and many many handsets, including the popular Samsung Galaxy handsets, come with third party hardware vendor app stores pre-installed. Amazon Appstore for android was shipped in March 2011.
Meanwhile, Apple not only disallows third-party app stores, but also disallows third party SMS messenger clients, third party web-browser-engines, and has closed iMessage and Facetime networks.
I think you are going after the wrong company if you think Android is anti-competitive.
Please set your sights on Apple.
The fact that you have not already makes me wonder why.
