Google also can’t:

  • Offer developers money or perks not to launch their apps on rival stores

This is pretty hilarious if you know about Epic's strategy on PC.

Yeah, Epic are being pretty hypocritical, but hopefully this will result in some positive changes. I'm just shocked at how much judges are taking Apple's side in those lawsuits.

Yeah Apple was the one that really needs actual side loading with how absolutely locked down it is. Makes me wonder if this is just some equivalent of an empty gesture to avoid having to make Apple actually open up.
