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.

I don’t see what would be difficult about removing restrictions and maintaining or expanding a basic store API which they already have.

The only problem I see is Google already allows a lot of malware and junk in their store, this would only make it worse.

That's a good mental backflip.
