Epic judge lets Google keep its Android app store closed to competitors — for now
Google may get its appeal before consequences arrive.
Last week, the company asked Judge James Donato to press pause on his November 1st deadline to drastically alter its Android app store rules. With Donato’s original deadline lifted, Google is at least briefly off the hook — and has potentially started down the same path Apple took that let it delayremoving its anti-steering App Store rules for over two years. These remedies threaten Google Play’s ability to provide a safe and secure experience and we look forward to continuing to make our case to protect 100 million U.S. Android users, over 500,000 U.S. developers and thousands of partners who have benefited from our platforms.
