  • Judge James Donato intends to dismantle Google’s Android app store monopoly, following an earlier ruling declaring it illegal.
  • Google argued that opening its store to competitors would be too costly and complex, but the judge dismissed this claim, emphasizing that barriers will be removed.
  • Proposed remedies include banning discriminatory practices against rival app stores and setting up a committee to monitor compliance and report regularly.
