       Your phone should not be a closed box.We told Google it must open Android to other AI providers.We now invite you to comment on our draft measures in a public consultation by 13 May 2026.Under the Digital Markets Act, we ensure you – not big tech – decide which tools to use. This protects innovation in all EU countries and promotes digital freedom.Help us hold platforms accountable and make the digital world fairer, and more open for everyone ↓https://link.europa.eu/wKbGbT#DMA

       @EUCommission How about keeping it open so that the likes of @GrapheneOS can continue building an alternative OS? AI is not the biggest issue here, whatever lobbyists may tell you.

       @EUCommission This post started so promising"Your phone should not be a closed box."But then ..."We told Google it must open Android to other AI providers."Please! We don't need any "AI providers" but unlimited ownership of the device itself, the right to use it with any custom OS and to inspect / fix it!

       @EUCommission if that would also mean the option to remove all AI (LLM) providers / services, then all for.

       @EUCommission I don't want AI slop in my phone. I know this isn't something you hear a lot from the lobby creeps, but that's nowhere close to the list of enforcement priorities I'd like against Google or any of the tech broligarchs.

       @EUCommission I do not care about ai in my phone. I need you to force them to keep the possibility of alternate stores open. I need you not to force me to use my id to us a phone or computer. I need you to open all governmental apps for use whilst my phone is rooted, adb is activated and on different operating systems than android or ios. and of course: I need you to force all memnber states to make all gov apps open source.

       @EUCommission I mean yes, but also: there should not be AI in your phone. At all. Anyone's AI.What I need is for my phone to be able to function for longer than 1-3 years. And for my phone to be able to function on other operating systems. And for me to be able to switch to those other operating systems without bricking the phone or voiding warranty.Focusing on "other AI" is gobbledygook. It's a diversion from the actual freedoms citizens really want and need with their tech.

       @EUCommission you and national governments are making us use those closed boxes. Don't force us to use apps only available on those stores, or on any particular store. That will allow us to choose systems that devices were we're not locked into them.Make it mandatory that public services use only open APIs, open data, and standards for protocols and file formats, promote the creation and adoption of software that uses those things.

       @EUCommission "Your phone should not be a closed box."Great! While you're at it, make it open in a true sense; meaning - open to install any OS on phone hardware, install any app store, don't rely on Google for banking etc.

       @EUCommission that's the right way, even though it's not just about AI.Please think a little bit bigger and look at the complete mobile ecosystems.Please ensure, that it stays possible and easy to install any app I want without Google or Apple to agree - just as we do it for decades in our desktop-PCs.And pls ensure, that we don't need Google- or Apple-devices to use apps from our governments, to identify online or to interact with our government. So pls: https://keepandroidopen.org!

       @EUCommission you're right! Google should not be able to decide on our phones! The AOSP project should be the reference! Ungoogled phones like @GrapheneOS  should be the preference! Projects like https://keepandroidopen.org/it/ should be in the order of the day, everyday! Libre systems that respects and empowers their users, your citizens, should be the norm!

       @EUCommission "Under the Digital Markets Act, we ensure you – not big tech – decide which tools to use."Good idea. I want to use apps without Google API. Could you make Google removing Play Services and Play Store, Please? You could also convince gov/banking/medical apps developers to break Google dependency and allow using these apps without American big tech espionage. Making EU-App-Store for these apps is within your reach.

       @EUCommission This is great, but misses the forest for the trees:* Google is rapidly closing Android by making it harder to install apps from outside the Play Store.* Google is rapidly closing Android by limiting AOSP to two drops (main release, QPR2) a year.* Google makes it harder for alternative systems by putting a 3 month embargo on security patches, which they only give to OEMs.* Google forces competitors out of the market with Play Integrity.

I don't care about AI-crap, I want an *open* phone, where I can decide which software is installed (you should also limit the growing number of system apps that can't be uninstalled, but that I still need to waste my time upgrading) and run.

Because if its more LLMs, I actually WOULD prefer my phone to be a closed box rather than one open to more environmental damage. Aggraviting climate change is the exact opposite of what we should be striving for.

       @EUCommission Czech regime IMO brutally tramples human right to fair trial.As I understand,it considers the fact that one contacts a lawyer,a sign of paranoid delusions and being a dangerous person,and one is IMO abducted based on that into an IMO concentration camp Bohnice,and if you want to defend yourself,you need time and money to get through all court instances which reject you,all the way to the Constitutional Court,which agrees with you:Time 0:52,remaining time 24:42:"young mother,who was separated from her newborn,based on a report of her partner,and forcedly hospitalized on psychiatry.She was defending herself but lost all courts[…]wrote,that the mother suffers from delusions and is therefore dangerous[…]Constitutional judge Dita Řepková:"The general courts haven't considered that the complaintant was contacting a lawyer at the moment a police and rescue services were acting in her home,they considered it a sign of paranoia nevertheless we believe that one cannot say it was a sign of paranoia if you want to contact legal help,it's not clear to us,and it also doesn't follow from the court's justification." In other words,Constitutional Court said,if you are defending yourself from forced hospitalization by a request for legal help,ie you want to call your lawyer,it definitely doesn't mean you are dangerous,paranoid,that you are suffering rom delusions.Czech TV video:Untangled:Diagnosis Dissident, https://www.ceskatelevize.cz/porady/17448830218-rozpleteno/226563231000004/I feele x t r e m e l y ​ ​ s t r o n g ​ ​ c o n t e m p ttowards the Czech regime when I am seeing this.The inclusion of the following hashtags is not meant to represent a relation to the content or topic of the post and may be only loosely related or based on loose,multiply indirect,emotional,impressional or subconscious associations,or completely unrelated:#humanrights #humanrightsviolations #czech #czechia #czechrepublic #regime #contempt #psychiatry #dissent #concentrationcamp #abduction #authoritarianism #totalitarianism

CustomROMs and usage without PlayServices has to be possible easily!And for this the european apps have to work without PlaySerives and other spyware. European service providers lile banks have to be forced to support google-free alternatives.We need choice, not only between apple vs. google, but real choice!

Sideloading is this thing you tried to force Apple to, you remember?It doesn't seem Apple and Google are interested in what you say.And why should they if the only thing you say is "Please!" instead of enforcing European Laws. I can nearly hear them laughing.Keep Android open:https://keepandroidopen.orgOtherwise invest in #postmarketOShttps://postmarketos.org
