Google’s iron grip on Android (ars technica)
Here's a
lengthy ars technica article describing the mechanisms by which Google
maintains control of Android. "For some of these apps, there might
still be an AOSP equivalent, but as soon as the proprietary version was
launched, all work on the AOSP version was stopped. Less open source code
means more work for Google's competitors. While you can't kill an open
source app, you can turn it into abandonware by moving all continuing
development to a closed source model. Just about any time Google rebrands
an app or releases a new piece of Android onto the Play Store, it's a sign
that the source has been closed and the AOSP version is dead."
