    Good call. Even digital markets are markets and shouldnt be monopolized

      I still don’t understand how some people find this controversial given how important mobile devices are to people now.

        A lot of people think fragmentation of digital markets will deliver a worse experience.

        While it does add a tiny amount of friction, the trade-offs are massive.

        I think it’s mostly just the “China = BAD” factor because of Tencent’s part-ownership.

          Maybe it’s because Epic sucks and are total hypocrites. Google absolutely deserved to lose in court, but Epic and Sweeney can go to hell.

              Hah, indeed. That Epic is long dead, just like the Id that made Commander Keen and the Blizzard that made Rock n Roll Racing.
