That's the thing. The EU is not trying to tell Google how to make money from android. It's only saying it can't force installation of search and chrome. It's upto Google to find another means of making money that won't exploit their dominance in other markets
- jaredklewis 8y agoSure, I have no problem at all with the commission’s findings or forcing Google to change its business practices. But I find it weird when then people are shocked that google says it may make android proprietary. What exactly did people expect to happen? That Google would decide to develop Android as an act of charity to handset manufacturers and mobile carriers?
- londons_explore 8y agoI wonder if Google could say "Android is free in the entire world, except Europe where it costs $500"
- noxecanexx 8y agoI would assume most android users think android is cheap rather than free. It would be interesting though to see their response to such price hike(if it ever happens)
