    His point is that the browser is integral to the functioning of the phones OS and is a decision that the consumer makes when they purchase a phone.

    Your suggestion is akin to demanding the right to buy a Honda with a Toyota engine installed by the dealer.

      I don’t think that’s even true, but even if it were they could still present the user with a choice for the browser they use to browse the web and keep the integrated browser for those tasks.

      I have a Google pixel 7 and I use Firefox and I disabled Google Chrome, for example.

      I’ve had Samsung’s and used Firefox and disabled Samsung internet.
