Break google up! They clearly manipulate what you’re allowed to see, massive election interference in plain sight!

Wrong. Google was the default search engine of iPhone when it launched in 2017. So YouTube was the video app and maps.

skunk.works :
Google acquired Motorola primarily for its mobile phone patents. While Android was open-source and free for manufacturers, Google lacked the patent portfolio to defend itself against Apple’s aggressive litigation over smartphone technology. Apple had been using patents to challenge Android device makers, threatening Google’s ecosystem. By acquiring Motorola’s vast patent library, Google gained leverage, effectively creating a mutual assured destruction (MAD) scenario—if Apple sued, Google could counter with its own patents. This stalemated legal battles and prevented further aggressive litigation from Apple. Once Google secured its patent shield, Motorola itself became unnecessary. Google later sold Motorola to Lenovo but retained the patents, ensuring Android remained legally protected while offloading the hardware business.

If only they had built it natively instead of relying on a Java runtime. That thing is still a mess 🤦‍♂️

Google used android to go to war with Microsoft and crush them. They weren’t really against iOS until Steve Jobs declared war and said he would go Thermo nuclear on them.
