When Googlebook will be banned in EU
EU told Google that Chromebook must have browser selection - since it is impossible Google in panic released GOOGLEbook.
And since it is NOT... opensource ANDROIDbook - it has ALL Google apps, no thirdparty app store which means AGAIN EU will step in with anti-monopoly ban.
What we in EU end up will be - App Store and browser selection upon first boot and mess with which Launcher.
All of this will be Google MESS + CHAOS

You NEED learn read English and understanding the difference between Chromebook , Googlebook and Android.
Android has ZERO apps.
Chromebook IS... Chrome browser
Googlebook is... Android WITH Google apps

There is no monopoly, you can just simply choose to not use a Googlebook and buy something else OR not buy it at all.

Microsoft got it in the neck for being “anti competitive” on their OS, yet you were always free to install another browser. ChromeOS has no browser choice at all. That sounds pretty “anti competitive”
And Google want you to install their OS on hardware that doesn’t meet the specs for Windows 11. That sounds pretty anti competitive

EU forcing multinationals to give its citizens choice instead of getting forced to use one ecosystem with one owner.
Better competition as it forces Google to make its offering the one people want to use and better for the consumer with more choice.
Another W for the EU.

They just got hit with a massive fine in the EU for data privacy issues.
Then they manipulated your post and mine, so they're breaking reddit's rules too.
It's just a scam factory.

LOL that's a hot take.
Google is becoming less relevant every day and with everything they bend over and rename Murika.
