Riddle me this, why is it OK for Google to bundle Chrome on Android if MS was fined over bundling IE on Windows?
My S7 came with an "Internet" app.
usually they don't bundle it
the phone you're buying is a custom rom which comes with google chrome because there's some shit in the contract saying that both they have an agreement with google to offer it preinstalled besides plain android and that you actually want that and that's what you sign for.

and how is that different from some random MS EULA exactly?

The US was more strict with companies back then and actually tried to prevent monopolies.
Since 9/11 everything the government and the judicial system does is in favor of corporations.

is it dare I say corruption - or something that looks like corruption?
I don't get the 911 reference btw

not at all
it was supposed they were selling plain windows and they were fined on internet explorer not being a standard feature of the OS.
so now it can come preinstalled with the browser cause you buy the bing bundle shit feature or the non-N version of windows.
I dont think chrome is bundled with android. It comes with an absolutely horrific default "internet" browser app

so why were they fined in the first place? It is the same practice with a different name, if it was against the customers then, it is against them now
