Seriously this is crazy. Apple somehow winning is way worse as there is simply no way to install third party apps on IOS. Android makes the risks clear but it's still at least possible if you click install anyway.

In terms of being a monopoly, in the US ios has more market share anyway. Google's lawyers must have really made some big mistake.
