    Hopium question: Can Google be sued for this as anti-competitive behavior and fined for “lost revenue”?

      In theory yes. In practice or will require enormous resources to build a case against the army of layers that Google and the other giants can afford. I believe only the government now is big enough to do it, with the antitrust law.

      You can install any apk on your phone (even unrooted) and there’s alternative stores such as f-droid, so why?
