Imagine if your bank said that. Or a storage unit business.
I’m not sure why we accept it for digital “goods”.
- dialup_sounds 2y agoWhat Epic is asking for goes beyond just moving your stuff though. They're simultaneously asking for complete transparent access to every app published on Play Store and for Google to be forbidden from doing anything to encourage or promote publishing on Play Store. This does not work the other way. Google will not be able to show Epic's apps in Play Store, Epic is free to do whatever they want to secure exclusives like they do already, and Epic doesn't have to allow transferring apps to Play Store or any other store.
