Some interesting dynamics at play here if true. Google basically maintains Android to get people to use Google services on it, so Samsung switching to Bing would eliminate Google's incentive to develop Android. Samsung is also by FAR the largest Android OEM and holds almost as much power over the platform as Google just from the sheer amount of Android devices that they ship.
- amelius 3y ago> Samsung switching to Bing would eliminate Google's incentive to develop Android They still have quite some apps on Android that they can use to extract data from users and send ads, e.g. youtube, gmail, maps, etc.
- Hippocrates 3y agoPretty interesting when put that way. Why DID google develop android??? Oh yeah.
