If Google does then so does Apple?

I don't fully understand this. If you want your app on a store front, you play by their rules or provide direct alternatives.

or provide direct alternatives.

yeah. Huawei has their own, Samsung has their own, Amazon has their own, Xiaomi has their own, I imagine so do all other Chinese OEM's. All of these run Android. What exactly does this verdict mean? What was the jury smoking and how the fuck did Google let it slide?!
