    The EU To Google: You're Fucked.

    Here ya go all you douchesnot Android fuck Nazis:

    "The European Commission announced a fine against Google today of €4.34 billion ($5.04 billion) for breaking antitrust policies with Android."

    Here's how...

    Google required phone manufacturers to pre-install the Google Search app and browser app (Chrome), as a condition for licensing Google's app store (the Play Store);

    ⥭ Google made payments to certain phone manufacturers and mobile network operators on condition that they exclusively pre-installed the Google Search app on their devices;

    ⥭ Google prevented phone manufacturers wishing to pre-install Google apps from selling even a single smart mobile device running on alternative versions of Android that were not approved by Google (so-called "Android forks").


    Ooooh, must be all that "free market" horseshit all the Rethuglicons love to whine about.

    So basically Google bought out every right to every Android user and every network that uses it and monopolized their apps so the manufacturers had no choice but to use them only to end us costing Google $5 billion in unethical practices. I love it when massive corporate cocksuckers get their dicks chopped off and shoved right into their greedy mouths.

    Story here, you Trump slave retards:

    The biggest collusion scandal in the world isn't even Cheeto and Pooty Poot. It's whatever the fuck Google & Apple have done to somehow keep open source Linux mobile devices off the market.

    I reluctantly use an Android phone, but I'd overwrite that shit with Linux in a heartbeat if it were available (just as I did with my originally Android-based video box)

        Always nice to tell Google to fuck themselves but then the EU isn't any better. Basically replacing elected representatives with appointed, non-elected officials in Brussels. The EU is just another monopoly ran by a few European aristocrats. It basically turns the elected officials in the participating countries into puppets with no real power.
        No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!
