Google's market position, actions, and internal statements could net a different result. Particularly: 1) The "Premier Device Program" where they offered additional search revenue to OEMs who promised not to preinstall any app stores other than Play Store. 2) Made a number of efforts to combat Epic's plan, which they called a "contagion", including trying to make a special deal with Epic, paying out hundreds of millions in special deals with huge devs like Tencent and Activision-Blizzard to stay on the Play Store, and even considering purchasing Epic to make it go away. 3) Had internal communications that acknowledge the considerable friction presented by sideloading 4) Had internal communications that discuss the serious financial risk to Google if an alternative App Store took off through OEM bundling. That said, this is all info from Epic's filing and shouldn't really be taken as an unbiased presentation of the facts or that any of it was actually illegal. It mostly just goes to say that Google extended themselves differently when defending their app store income stream. https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/6/22612921/google-epic-antitrust-case-court-filings-unsealed https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/6/22612921/google-epic-antit... https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/19/22632818/google-project-hug-game-developers-play-store-millions-epic-lawsuit-complaint https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/19/22632818/google-project-h...
