A new Biden administration report describes Apple and Google as 'gatekeepers' of mobile app stores. It suggests legislation is needed to spur competition and give app makers and consumers more choices.
There is "real potential harm for consumers" in the way Apple and Google run their app stores, with the companies "inflating prices and reducing innovation," Alan Davidson, NTIA administrator, said in a call with reporters.
"We're looking forward to seeing what legislation gets introduced on Capitol Hill.... Our hope is that this analysis can inform how people are thinking about these issues," he said. "We have a real opportunity to make progress on tech and competition in this Congress," said Bharat Ramamurti, deputy director of the National Economic Council. "We're highly committed to reform in this space and we will work closely with Congress to see whatever is possible.
Administration officials said in a call with reporters that the report should be considered policy analysis and advice to inform ongoing enforcement work at the Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission.
