On: Mozilla Reaction to U.S. vs. Google

[bzbarsky]

My understanding, and I could be totally wrong on this, is that at the time such an Android spin would not have been able to use things like Google's app store, and possibly things like Maps and whatnot, due to not having Google's browser as default.

Likely true. But there are options.

* it could come with an alternative app store

* maps can be used as a web app (how is that different from Firefox OS?)

But yes it would look more like Amazon's offering than Google's. Look where microg is now, though. That is without Mozilla's backing.
