Sounds like Google is getting punished for being a more open ecosystem than Apple.

I'm sure if this leads to any action, Apple will feel like opening up further. /s

  A straw man fallacy (sometimes written as strawman) is the
  informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from
  the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing
  or acknowledging the distinction. One who engages in this
  fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man".

People really think Google is doing it for their goodwill instead of the optics, huh.
