Google is certainly loosing any bounds lately
  • Google plans to push harder for developers to give the company a cut of in-app purchases through its Play app store. It plans to issue updated guidelines as early as next week that clarify a requirement for most apps to use Google’s billing service for in-app content downloads, game upgrades and subscriptions. This system gives the company a 30% cut of purchases inside of apps on Android.

    While this requirement has existed for years, some major developers including Netflix Inc., Spotify Technology SA, Match Group Inc. and Epic Games Inc., have circumvented the rule. Netflix and Spotify apps prompt consumers to pay using a credit card, rather than their Play app store account, bypassing Google’s fee. Match Group’s Tinder dating app uses similar payment process.

    Issue is that capitalists never can't stop at the proper time and always ends up hanging on the tree.
