    Rapid innovation, wide choice, and falling prices are classic hallmarks of robust competition. Android has enabled this and created more choice for everyone, not less. This is why we intend to appeal today's Android decisionhttps://blog.google/around-the-globe/google-europe/android-has-created-more-choice-not-less/ …

        Google forces manufacturers to include its services on every Android device. This is bad for competition and the open source community. But still, I would prefer Android over iOS everytime.

        This isn't true at all. There is no requirement to use Google Play Services with Android. You're free to do whatever you want with Android, such as what Amazon has done with it's Fire brand of devices. This is mentioned in Sundar's article.

        But you need Play Services to have Play Store, which is the fundamental of Android. You have to agree to Google's rules to use the ecosystem, which also bundles Google's apps and services, and Google knows that. This is what EU is talking about. This is anti-competitive.

        If developers want, they can create their own app store instead of using the play store. That creates more choice to the user.

        Also It helps innovation because creating your own appstore would require a lot of effort by small companies. And large ones can compete with Google if they want by beating Play Store or other google services.

        In your post, you mention Firefox as an alternative browser on Android; that's great, but then why is it served a sub-par Google search experience?pic.twitter.com/8iuTDFBxZI

        Firefox nightly is actually spoofing a different user agent in order to get the same google search experience that chrome does, and it works perfectly fine. There's no reason google needs to do this.

        So, Google is using its monopoly to screw Firefox, which is not even competition being open source community project, while crying around when they get deservedly fined for such shameful practices.

        The EU is right. It’s the same case as we had before with Windows and IE. MS was required to display other browsers, including Chrome. Just accept it. Hopefully the EU will take a closer look into Apple’s default apps practices..

        I completely agree that Google is being unfairly targeted when Apple does the same thing. I despise their closed system- forcing me to use Safari and other apps as a default on their devices- and NO open source so I can do whatever I want.

        Apple is not a monopoly. It's not forcing partners to bundle their services. Google is.

        They don't have to sign up for Google services if they don't want to. Manufacturers choose to because they know their devices will sell better.

        It's a bundle - either the Play Store and all pre-installed Google apps or nothing. This is exactly what Google complained about when Microsoft did it.

        Microsoft didn't give manufacturers a choice where as Google does. Manufacturers can also pre-install their own services and apps if they wish to do so.. just like Samsung currently does. Microsoft could even build an Android phone with Bing pre-installed if they wanted to!!

        Nobody will buy a phone without the Play Store because there is no competing app store which is viable. Building a viable app store from scratch is practically impossible.

        It's not impossible.. Samsung has it's own App Store which is pre-installed on all the Galaxy devices. Amazon also has it's own App Store which is pre-installed on all Amazon tablets.. This whole case in null and void.
