In theory if Fuschia fulfills it's purpose, google could have Android sit on top of Fuschia as opposed to a Linux Kernel.
This would give them far more control over the direction of the OS, far more control over millions of users, and allow far less tinkering by android users.
- liotier 5y agoWhile Android users still tinker within their steadily shrinking degrees of freedom, their desire for software freedom has an escape route within the Android world. But what if Google succeeds in using Fuschia to lock down the consumer mobile ecosystem ? With nowhere left to go, won't users focus on some new space entirely outside of Google's reach instead of just fleeing Google around Android ?
