⚡️ #JUST_IN EU Orders Google to Change Android

The European Commission is forcing Google to open 11 system-level functions of Android to rival AI assistants. This move aims to stop the tech giant from keeping the best features exclusively for its own Gemini assistant.

Under the Digital Markets Act, Google must now treat competitors as equals to its own software. These rules allow other chatbots to tap into the phone hardware and system features that were previously restricted. Google has expressed concerns about potential security risks, specifically regarding the requirement to share sensitive search data with these third-party services. The tech company has until July 2027 to implement these mandated changes across its mobile operating system.

Third-party apps will gain access to 11 features that were once controlled by 1 company.
