Epic’s proposed injunction threatens Google’s Android authority

Following its victory over Google, Epic Games proposed some reforms to a US judge regarding Android app distribution. Earlier, the company sued Google citing its monopoly in Android app distribution, and scored a legal victory apart from $700 million in compensation.

Notably, the US court judge is reportedly not bound to accept Epic’s proposal of reforms. At the same time, Google confirmed it would be considering an appeal against the recent decision over the controversy of monopoly in Android app distribution.

In a blog post, Epic Games proposed: “Google must also allow developers to communicate directly with their consumers, including linking from their app to a website to make purchases and get deals.”

The blog post also demands that “Google be blocked from using sham compliance programs like User Choice Billing to prevent competing payment options inside an app or on a developer’s website.”

Epic’s blog said, “Our proposed injunction seeks to block Google from repeating past bad-faith tactics and open up Android devices to competition and choice for all developers and consumers.”
