Google ayaa ku dhawaaqay March 19th , iyada oo loo marayo boostada blog by SVP ee arrimaha caalamiga ah Kent Walker , in ay doonayaan in ay "wax badan sameeyaan si loo hubiyo in milkiilayaasha telefoonada Android ogaadaan doorashada ballaaran ee daalacashada iyo matoorada raadinta la heli karo." ^{("do more to ensure that Android phone owners know about the wide choice of browsers and search engines available.")}Tani waxay u badan tahay inay la macno tahay inay u soo bandhigi doonaan isticmaalayaasha browser-cod-bixinta, oo la mid ah tii Guddiga^(Commission) Yurub ay ku soo rogeen Microsoft 2009. Isku ekaanshaha Microsoft kuma eka. Waa kan waxa laga filayo:

Waxaan ku yeelan karnaa cod-bixinta Android sidii midda Windows 7 ay lahayd

Sida ^(Just)Microsoft , xiriirka Google iyo Midowga Yurub^{(European Union)} waa mid adag. Horraantii sannadkii hore Google ayaa Midowga Yurub ku ganaaxay rikoor dhan 4.34 bilyan oo Yuuro^(Euro) arrimo sharci darro ah. Waxay ku xad-gudbeen qawaaniinta ka-hortagga kalsoonida aaladaha mobilada ee Android , si loo xoojiyo awoodda mashiinka raadinta Google . Maxay tani ka dhigan tahay? Guddiga Yurub ^(Europe),^(Commission) oo ah hay'ad ka tirsan Midowga Yurub oo mas'uul ka ah ilaalinta xeerarka, ayaa baadhay Google waxayna go'aansadeen inay ku xad-gudbinayaan booskooda suuqa ugu sarreeya iyagoo xaddidaya tartanka. Kaliya^(Just)Sida, waxaad u malaysay, Microsoft waxay ku samaysay Windows . Natiijo ahaan, haddii aad ku nooshahay Yurub^(Europe) , waxaad furi kartaa taleefankaaga casriga ah maalin maalmaha ka mid ah si aad u hesho ikhtiyaarka aad ku dooranayso browser cusub iyo mashiinka raadinta cusub halkii aad ka heli lahayd browserka Google Chrome ee caadiga ah , iyo mashiinka raadinta Google .

Komishanka Yurub^(Europe) ayaa go'aamiyay in dadka badankoodu isticmaalaan mishiinkooda raadinta ee horay loo rakibay . ^(Commission)Cabirkani waxa uu ku qasbi karaa isticmaalayaasha in ay sameeyaan baadhitaan diiwaansan oo ay albaabada u furaan shirkadaha kale iyo kuwa horumariya, iyaga oo siinaya fursad dagaal in kasta oo ay jirto boqortooyada sii kordheysa ee Google . Bal qiyaas^(Imagine) in aad haysato nooca mobaylka ee codaynta browserka Microsoft ee ^(Microsoft)Windows 7 , markan dhammaan talefannada casriga ah ee Android ee lagu iibiyo Yurub^(Europe) .

Sug…^(Wait…) waxaa jira wax badan oo ku saabsan jacaylka iyo xiriirka nacaybka Google ee ^(Google)Midowga Yurub^{(European Union)}

Warka xun ee Google - ku kuma eka: Guddoomiyaha Margrethe Vestager^{(Commissioner Margrethe Vestager)} , oo mas'uul ka ah siyaasadda tartanka (iyo malaha qofka Google u arko inuu yahay archnemesis), ayaa ku dhawaaqay March 20th , ganaax kale oo Google ah oo ah € 1.49 bilyan^{(fine for Google of €1.49 billion)} . Markan waa jebinta sharciyada lidka ku ah kalsoonida ee la xidhiidha "ku-takri-falka sharci-darrada ah ee booskeeda ugu weyn ee suuqa ee dillaalinta xayeysiisyada raadinta internetka."^{("illegal misuse of its dominant position in the market for the brokering of online search adverts.")}

Tani waxay ka dhigeysaa mid la yaab leh oo ku saabsan bayaanka kama dambaysta ah ee Kent Walker's blog post iyo ujeedooyinka Google ee ah "muujinta (...) ka go'naanta sii socota ee ku shaqeynta hab furan oo mabda'a leh."^{("demonstrate (...) continued commitment to operating in an open and principled way.")}

Sidee u aragtaa khilaafka Google iyo EU? browserka Android^(Android) iyo codaynta mashiinka raadinta ma hoos u dhigi doonaa awooda^(Will) Google ?^(Google)

Sidee u aragtaa khilaafkan Google iyo EU? Sida mid ka mid ah khabiiradu ka faalloodeen maqaalkan cusub ee wararka^{(older news article)} , "Mawqifka EU-da ayaa lagu doodi karaa lix ilaa siddeed sano oo daahsan. Android ayaa horeyba u caawisay sameynta apps iyo adeegyada Google sida lagama maarmaanka u ah macaamiisha ee Galbeedka Galbeedka. Iyadoo kala soocida apps ee nidaamka hawlgalka. waxaa laga yaabaa inay gacan ka geysato kobcinta tartanka muddada dheer, wax-soo-saarayaashu waxay sii wadi doonaan inay u baahdaan inay bixiyaan adeegyada Google si ay u noqdaan kuwo tartan leh oo wax looga qabto baahida macaamiisha." ^{("The EU stance is arguably six to eight years too late. Android has already helped establish Google apps and services as essentials for consumers in the Western World. While the separation of apps from the operating system may help foster competition over the longer term, manufacturers will continue to need to offer Google services to be competitive and address consumer demand.")}Maxay kula tahay? Ma aad u yar, aad bay u daahday? Ma u aragtaa isbeddelkan mid saamayn togan ku leh? Hoos ka faallooda^(Comment) oo aan ka doodno.

Google giving European users a choice of browser & search engine, while getting fined, again!

Google has аnnounced on March 19th, through a blog pоst by their SVP of global affairs Kent Walker, that thеy intend to "do more to ensure that Android phone owners know about the wide choice of browsers and search engines available." This probably means they are going to present users with a browser-ballot, similar to the one the European Commission imposed on Microsoft in 2009. The similarities with Microsoft do not stop there. Here is what to expect:

We could have a ballot on Android as the one Windows 7 had

Just like Microsoft's, Google's relationship with the European Union is a difficult one. As early as last year Google was fined by the EU a record 4.34 billion Euro for illegal practices. They violated antitrust rules regarding Android mobile devices, to strengthen the dominance of Google's search engine. What does this mean? The European Commission, which is an institution of the EU in charge of upholding rules, investigated Google and decided they were abusing their dominant market position by restricting competition. Just like, you guessed it, Microsoft did with Windows. As a result, if you live in Europe, you might unlock your smartphone one day to find the option to choose a new browser and a new search engine instead of the default Google Chrome browser, and the Google search engine.

The European Commission has determined that most people use their preinstalled search engine. This measure might force users to make a documented search and open the door to other companies and developers, giving them a fighting chance in spite of Google's growing empire. Imagine having a mobile version of Microsoft's browser ballot from Windows 7, this time on all Android smartphones sold in Europe.

Wait… there's more to Google's love and hate relationship with the European Union

The bad news for Google does not stop there: Commissioner Margrethe Vestager, in charge of competition policy (and probably the person Google perceives as their archnemesis), announced on March 20th, another fine for Google of €1.49 billion. This time it is for breaching antitrust laws related to the "illegal misuse of its dominant position in the market for the brokering of online search adverts."

This makes one wonder about the final statement from Kent Walker's blog post and Google's intentions to "demonstrate (...) continued commitment to operating in an open and principled way."

What do you think of the conflict between Google and the EU? Will an Android browser and search engine ballot lower Google's dominance?

What do you think about this conflict between Google and the EU? As one expert commented in this older news article, "The EU stance is arguably six to eight years too late. Android has already helped establish Google apps and services as essentials for consumers in the Western World. While the separation of apps from the operating system may help foster competition over the longer term, manufacturers will continue to need to offer Google services to be competitive and address consumer demand." What do you think? Is it too little, too late? Do you see this change as having a positive impact? Comment below and let's discuss.
