Look, Google. You and me both, we don't want EU bureaucracy to get involved again... (It's going to be a different group than the chat control people. If the chat control people win bigly, this would actually support what they want. Is there, like, any connection between that and the timing of these new rules?)
DMA does nothing to prevent this, Google claims it's about security which will satisfy the DMA. Same as for Apple (the EU is going after them because of the fees, not because of the complicated process). The EU is not interested in letting you run unapproved software because they want to use it for themselves with their digital wallet app and ID checks.
