FSFE Accuses Google of Silently Reinstalling AI Components on Android, DMA Compliance Under Fire
The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) has filed a complaint with the European Commission, alleging Google silently reinstalls AI models on Android after user uninstallation, violating the Digital Markets Act (DMA). FSFE demands users be able to fully remove preloaded AI components and be protected from silent reinstalls. The dispute also targets Google's upcoming developer verification program, which could restrict access to alternative app stores like F-Droid.
