Google's Plan to Stop Apple from Getting Serious About Search

I don't have a strong opinion about sideloading applications.

What I'm more concerned about is Apple being forced to allow non-WebKit browsers in the App Store.

Apple requiring the use of WebKit on iOS is the only thing stopping Chrome from having a complete monopoly, aside from Firefox with its 5% marketshare.

I am equally terrified of Chrome's dominance in the browser market.

I don't agree that forcing WebKit on iOS is the solution, however. The law should seek to break Chrome's monopoly, not enforce another.

Interesting take. I’ve de-giogled my life so I didn’t think about chrome. Fair enough
