I imagine GrapheneOS is thinking carefully about their statement on this. I look forward to reading it.

I mean, they could sue for non competitive behavior, but good luck beating Google's lawyers

GrapheneOS users (and actually just citizen who care) in the EU should complain to the DMA team [1]. As with everything: the more people complain, the higher priority it gets.

I recommend every EU citizen to do this. Don't send a pre-canned message or an LLM-generated message. Write your own story and how Google (and Apple) are destroying competition and freedom for you as an EU citizen.

Even if you are a GMS Android user, they are going to make installing apps outside the Play Store much more annoying and these attestation-backed verifications are going to further deanonymize you.
