you can blame the FTC for that, google is getting antitrusted because they built android as an open ecosystem and then tried to monopolize it, whereas apple gets mostly free reign over their walled garden. it reads to me that the message from the FTC is to vertically integrate and wall off everything, and open nothing.
- acdha 2y agoThat’s a weird way to say the FTC is being consistent. Google marketed Android as open but didn’t mean it, while Apple never promised otherwise. While I’d like both to be more open, there seems to be a clear message that you need to give consumers what you sold them.
