Let's wait and see what the remedy will be in this case. For the past few decades, antitrust enforcement has mostly relied on fines as opposed to requiring firms do something differently. As a result, courts and agencies don't have that much practice figuring out what remedies to apply. This is an area where software engineers who understand what's technically possible can come in very handy.

The devil is in the detail, and there are a few ways that "[opening up] Google's devices", "allow[ing] other app stores on its Android phones and tablets" and allowing developers to charge customers "without having to fork over a cut to Google" could be implemented.
