      Nothing anti-trust about genuine un-rooted and un-modified devices having secure access to the play store.
      It’s when you lock out phones that come from Huawei/Oppo etc. because they are Chinese, that you might be able to make a point.

        Google using market power to push “trust” technology bound to their Play Services (which is one of the requirements for their “Android” certificate).

      • It absolutely is, forcing people to use one OS on their device is insane. Fuck Google, they can take my GraphineOS Pixel 9 from my cold dead hands.

      • It is when the play store is not the only store allowed on devices. Their play services, with this change, are again acting as a monopoly, and again will be again be sued by the eu for violating anti trust laws.
