Russia to get rid of Android and iOS by launching its own Mobile
Operating System
http://thehackernews.com/2016/06/russian-mobile-os.html
Last month, it was reported that the European Commission is planning to
impose a record antitrust fine of about 3 BILLION euros (US$3.4 Billion)
on Google for violating antitrust laws.
Not just Europe, Google also lost an anti-monopoly appeal in Russia two
months back against ruling for violating its dominant position with the
help of its Android mobile OS by forcing its own apps and services like
Google Map, Youtube, and others, on users — reducing competition.
Now to put an end to the monopoly of major mobile Operating System,
Russians are developing their own mobile operating system to compete
with Android, iOS, and Windows mobile OS.
The new mobile operating system will be developed on the top of Sailfish
OS, a product developed by the Finnish company Jolla formed by former
Nokia engineers, which is now registered in Hong Kong.
