    “Unwarranted intervention” is pretty convenient when you own the platform and write all the rules to unfairly benefit yourself. Android/Playstore is not a neutral marketplace under those conditions. Non-intervention is not neutral either. It locks in default power and keeps competitors at a disadvantage.

    So the only sensible option is to regulate the heck out of big tech.

    It would be better if they mandated an easy way to remove gemini from android. You can’t remove it, there are videos on how to do it online, and instructions, none of them work. It’s buried deep in there on purpose, and likely spying on you even when you restrict the app which is the most you can seemingly do.

      Your phone already tracks your movements, record if you are driving or walking, and your direction of travel, and has been for years.

      This isn’t likely, it has already been doing that

        I’ll never understand these types of myopic comments. How do you have time to write them when you are so busy rolling over to show your belly?

        There is a lot more information to steal than what they take right now. Also a lot of ways of manipulating how the phone operates based on that information.

          In this case, my wife has already been getting fucked for years.

          So what’s the difference.

            …your dignity, knowing you could do something about it but don’t
