  1. This article and post has nothing to do with the App store "monopoly".

  2. Google paying to the default is not anti-competitive in any way. It's a very typical deal brand. For example: Goodyear pays to be the tire of Nascar or Nathan's pays to be the hotdog of the MLB. Google is just paying to be the search engine of Apple.

Hell, I'd even take it further argue what Google is even more obviously not anti-competitive because a user can straight up change their search engine, but you can't to to a MLB game and find a Ballpark hotdog vendor.

So Google is just the same thing as a sponsor is what you are saying?
