> These Epic-requested changes stem from a decision that is completely contrary to another court’s rejection of similar claims Epic made against Apple — even though, unlike iOS, Android is an open platform that has always allowed for choice and flexibility like multiple app stores and sideloading.

This part is the most baffling to me; why would the court side with Apple, who allows absolutely no freedom whatsoever, but against Google, which already allows real sideloading (not some kind of fake pay-per-install nonsense like Apple implemented for DSA).

It's a completely ridiculous ruling; can we somehow require judges in these sorts of cases to be tech-literate?

I have an iPhone and hardly ever think about Android. Clearly, they don't compete; or they suck at it so bad that I'm unaware of the competition.
