You don't have a problem with Google dictating what you can and cannot do on your own phone? Seriously?

What's the benefit of that?

As a user, you should be upset that a private company is controlling how you are allowed to use your device that you paid for with your money.

This would be like if Microsoft decided you could only run Microsoft-approved code on a computer you purchased, in some cases with a locked bootloader so you can't even change your OS.

Also, Google is (imho) already operating unethically when it comes to the app store (See Google v. Epic). I don't care about Fortnite, but Google really shouldn't be able to take a cut of random services just because it's running on Android.

Just think of it: you are the author of the ICE tracker app. You want to release the app as anonymously as possible, right? Well, not with this move in place. You will need to upload your govt. Id to their website. If the pigs come knocking, you bet your ass GOOG will gladly hand it over to them and off you go to Florida.

Google removed their motto "don't be evil". I think that alone will answer your question.

"I don't mind living under a dictatorship as long as it's just the people I don't care about getting murdered."
