Google is never going to improve the situation out of the goodness of their corporate heart (if such a thing were even to exist).

#34Googles dumb machine learning is destroying peoples lives and will continue to do so for decades unless somebody stops them. They control most of the internet and mobile space, it’s like having your water cut off permanently

I'm really unsure why people still decide to build their companies under Google products

I don't think this is enforceable nor I think it's even possible to have such legislature.
At the end of the day Google has every right to decide what they put and what they don't put on their store, with whom they do business and with whom they don't.
> With how much our modern lives are dependent on services like Google's, they effectively become utilities and should be regulated as such.
Calling an online application store an utility seems quite a stretch.
De-googling and de-duopoling is the answer to these situations. At the end of the day you can't force Google or Apple to have your products on their shop.

#38In the discussion of the last article, there was a discussion about weaponizing "associated accounts" when Google shuts things down. Looks like it's 100% a valid tactic. Looks like you need to make sure your employees all leave on good terms, and stay on good terms in the coming years. Otherwise, you too might find your Google accounts terminated with no recourse.

The screenshotted notice indicates it may be due to actions by the individual developer on their own account, for which the company would not necessarily have been notified.
