In the period of August-November 2025, the FSFE took part in a comprehensive study regarding #Google鈥檚 control over #interoperability in #AOSP.
In particular, the study focused on how the company's limiting access to critical interoperability can hinder Free Software projects.
The study was discussed in the @article19 #DMA Symposium and reviewed by the @EUCommission
A summary of the discussions conducted at the Symposium was later published at https://www.techpolicy.press/making-the-digital-markets-act-developer-friendly/
The @EUCommission's decision is a sign of progress in enforcing #interoperability obligations, tackling anti-competitive behaviour from these companies.
Taken together, such regulatory procedures should make interoperability effective, so #FreeSoftware developers have a chance to participate and innovate in digital markets.
Earlier, in June 2025, we took part in the workshop organised by the Commission on #Google's #DMA compliance, where we raised issues related to #interoperability.
In particular, similar problems #FreeSoftware developers are facing with #Apple, like discretionary power to deny interoperability, the lack of transparency, and anti-competitive practices.

Today, the @EUCommission opened a process under the #DMA to regulate how #Google handles #interoperability within #Android
The 
FSFE has been working intensively over the last two years to improve DMA interoperability against gatekeepers like #Apple and Google.
We will monitor how the Commission implements the interoperability rules further, ensuring DMA enforcement is Free Software-friendly.
