      I don’t think they want to be. I just think they want to fragment Android. I agree with them.

        The fall of android would be the fall of the only reliable open os for phones. I’m not seeing many custom roms for privacy based on iOS.

          Opening a space for an OS fork led by a consortium of mobile phone manufacturers that don’t have a vested interest in supporting their ad and tracking business would be an overall benefit. Google sees value in android only for that, and that’s a major problem.
