"This fine is an assault on open source"

Considering the cause of the fine is all of the non-open source bits Google adds on, I don't see how one can make a statement like that with a straight face.

"In any other context fining an open source project for antitrust violations is absurd."

They didn't fine the Android Open Source Project. They fined Google.
