    Google will additionally have to carry third-party app stores on Google Play and permit those competing app stores to have access to Google Play’s catalog of apps unless they opt out.

    The court-ordered changes are limited to the U.S. and run for three years, through 2029.

    Looks like it’s part of the same legal case, USA only though so I doubt much will come of it

      Oh, neat. I hadn’t caught that.

      Shame if it were to remain US only, but it’s another foot in the door at least.

        Yeah it would be nice if anything does come out of it but I’m not expecting much
