Good call. Even digital markets are markets and shouldnt be monopolized
I still don’t understand how some people find this controversial given how important mobile devices are to people now.

This is great news for anyone who is affected!
I’m sure a lot of us here won’t even notice.

then being mad for getting kicked out for violating basic rules
They were kicked out for intentionally violating anti-competitive rules. It’s bullshit. And it’s sad to see anyone at all defending Google here.
