I-Google isifinyelele ku- Isivumelwano sezomnotho esingu-$700 million ukuxazulula icala lokulwa nokungathembani elihlobene nesitolo sayo sohlelo lokusebenza se-Google Play. Nakuba isivumelwano saxoxiswana ngaso e I-United States kanye nezindawo ezihambisana nayoLeli cala libhekwe ngeso lokhozi eYurophu ngenxa yomthelela elingase libe nawo ekulawulweni kwezinkampani ezinkulu zobuchwepheshe.
Le nkampani isolwa ngokuthi njengoba ngilawule kabi ukusatshalaliswa kwezinhlelo zokusebenza kanye nezinkokhelo ngaphakathi kwe-Androidokwenza ukuthenga kubize kakhulu ezigidini zabasebenzisi. Lesi sivumelwano asigcini nje ngokuhlinzeka ngesinxephezelo sezimali esibalulekile kulabo abasebenzise i-Google Play, kodwa futhi sibophezela inkampani ukuthi iqalise ukusebenzisa izinguquko ezinqubweni zabo zokuhweba lokho kungakhuthaza izinqumo zesikhathi esizayo eSpain nakwezinye izingxenye ze-EU.
Lesi sivumelwano sihlose ukunxephezela izigidi zabathengi, asebeneminyaka eminingana, bethenga izinhlelo zokusebenza, okubhaliselwe noma okuqukethwe kwedijithali ngeplatifomu futhi, ngokusho kweziphathimandla, okungenzeka ukuthi bakhokha amanani aphezulu ngenxa yokuntuleka kokuncintisana.
Kungani kwafinyelelwa esivumelwaneni?
Isisekelo secala yi- icala elikhulu elifakwe ngabameli jikelele bazo zonke izifundazwe zase-U.S. ezingu-50 kanye nezindawo ezininganaabasola i-Google ngokwephula imithetho yokulwa nokungathembani. Ngokusho kophenyo, inkampani yayiqinise cishe ukulawula okuphelele phezu isitolo sezinhlelo zokusebenza zamadivayisi e-Androidikakhulukazi nge-Play Store.
Iziphathimandla zigcizelele ukuthi i-Google Igcine ngokungemthetho igunya lokulawula ukusatshalaliswa kohlelo lokusebenza kanye nokucutshungulwa kokukhokha ngaphakathi kohlelo lokusebenza.Lobu bunikazi obubili babuzobavumela ukuthi bakhokhise amakhomishini afinyelela ku-30% kubathuthukisi kanye nokuthengwa ngaphakathi nohlelo lokusebenza, okuyizindleko, ngezinga elikhulu, ezagcina zidluliselwe entengweni yokugcina ekhokhwe abasebenzisi.
Ngaphakathi kohlaka lwesivumelwano, I-Google ayivumi ukuthi yenze okungemthethoKodwa iyavuma ukukhokha amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-700 ukuze kuxazululwe impikiswano futhi kugwenywe inqubo yezomthetho ende neyinkimbinkimbi. Abalawuli abaningi bachaza lokhu ngokucacile: isivumelwano sibeka ingcindezi enkampanini ukuthi ukuvula umncintiswano oqhubekayo ezinhlelweni zokukhokha kanye nokusatshalaliswa kohlelo lokusebenza, impikiswano ephilayo kakhulu nase-European Union.
Kulawo macala ayizigidi ezingu-700, amadokhumenti ecala abonisa ukuthi amanye Kuzobekwa eceleni amaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-630 ukuze kunxeshezelwe abathengi ngqokanti imali eseleyo izosetshenziselwa ukukhokhela izinhlawulo, izindleko zomthetho kanye neminye imiqondo yezikhungo okucatshangwa yizifundazwe nezinhlangano ezihilelekile.
Lesi sinyathelo sinezela kwezinye izingcindezi zomthetho zakamuva, njengalezo ezicindezelwayo ikhomishini yaseYurophu ngaphansi kwesambulela se Umthetho Wezimakethe Zedijithali (DMA)futhi okuhlose ukunciphisa amandla amapulatifomu amakhulu ezitolo zezinhlelo zokusebenza kanye namasango okukhokha. Nakuba leli cala lingelaseMelika, Isibonelo silandelwa eduze ngabalawuli baseYurophu., okuhlanganisa negunya lokuncintisana laseSpain.
Simayelana nani isivumelwano se-Google Play?
Isivumelwano sokwahlulela sigxile ekusebenzeni kwe- I-Google Play Store njengesiteshi esiyinhloko sokulanda nokuthenga izinhlelo zokusebenza ze-AndroidIcala lathi inkampani isebenzise isikhundla sayo samandla ukuvimbela ukuvela kwamabhizinisi amasha. izindlela zangempela zesitolo sakho kanye nohlelo lwakho lokukhokhaizinketho zokukhawulela onjiniyela nabasebenzisi.
Ngokusho kwabashushisi, inhlanganisela yokulawula ukusatshalaliswa kohlelo lokusebenza kanye namasango okukhokha angaphakathi ivumele i-Google Sebenzisa amakhomishini ahlelekile afinyelela ku-30% ekulandisweni okukhokhelwayo kanye nokuthenga ngaphakathi nohlelo lokusebenzaEmpeleni, lokhu ngabe kunegalelo ku- khuphula izindleko zemidlalo, okubhaliselwe, kanye nokuqukethwe kwedijithali ezigidini zabantu.
Isivumelwano sithi ingxenye ebalulekile yesikhwamaImali engu-$630 million ebekelwe abathengi izosetshenziselwa ukunxephezela labo abenze noma yiluphi uhlobo lokuthengiselana ngedijithali nge-Google Play phakathi nesikhathi esihlaziyiwe. Lokhu kufaka phakathi konke kusukela kuzinhlelo zokusebenza ezikhokhelwayo kuya ku- okubhaliselwe, ukuthuthukiswa kwemidlalo, noma ukufinyelela kokuqukethwe kwe-premium.
Ngale komthelela wezomnotho, ingxenye ebalulekile yesivumelwano yisibopho se-Google sokwethula izinguquko ezinqubweni zabo ukuze kube lula ukuncintisana okwengeziwe esitolo sezinhlelo zokusebenza. Phakathi kwezinye izici, kulindeleke ukuthi kukhuthazwe ukusetshenziswa kwezinhlelo zokukhokha ezihlukile, okungase ukunciphisa umthwalo wamakhomishini amanje futhi, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, amanani ehla.
EYurophu, lapho i-Google isivele ibhekene nophenyo kanye nemithethonqubo ethile, leli cala lingaqinisa izimpikiswano zalabo abathi Izimo ezivulekile ezengeziwe zabasabalalisi bezinhlelo zokusebenza nabathuthukisiNakuba lesi sivumelwano sinqunyelwe kubasebenzisi abanama-akhawunti axhumene ngokusemthethweni ne-US nezindawo zayo, indlela yaso ihambisana nesiqondiso esibekwe yiKhomishini yaseYurophu kanye neziphathimandla eziningana zokuncintisana zikazwelonke.
Ubani ofanelekela isinxephezelo se-Google?
Isinxephezelo siqondiswe ku- abasebenzisi abathenge izinhlelo zokusebenza noma abenze izinkokhelo zangaphakathi nohlelo ku-Google Play ngesikhathi esithile. Isihluthulelo akusikho kakhulu izwe okulo manje, kodwa ikheli elisemthethweni elihlotshaniswa ne-akhawunti ye-Google Payments ngesikhathi sokuthenga.
Ngokusho kolwazi olusemthethweni ngaleli cala, isikhathi sokufaneleka kusukela ku- Kusukela ngo-Agasti 2016 kuya kuSepthemba 2023Noma ubani othenge ku-Play Store phakathi nalezo zinsuku angafakwa, uma nje ehlangabezana nemfuneko yendawo echazwe esivumelwaneni.

Azimbozwa ngokuzenzakalelayo, ngaphandle kokuthi iphrofayela yakho yokukhokha yayixhunywe ngokusemthethweni kulezo zindawo ngesikhathi sokuthengiselana.
Ngaphakathi iqembu labantu abangaba ngabazuziKutholakala inkokhelo encane engu-$2 kumthengi ngamunye.
Izinhlangano ezithintekayo azizange zisho obala ukuthi umkhawulo wesinxephezelo esiphezulu ngomuntu ngamunyeNgakho-ke, ukubalwa kokugcina kuzosuselwa enanini labasebenzisi abajoyina isivumelwano kanye nenani eliphelele lokuthenga elihlotshaniswa ne-akhawunti ngayinye. Lolu hlobo lokusatshalaliswa okulinganayo luvame kakhulu ezikhwameni ezinkulu zesinxephezelo e-US.
Malini ongayithola njengesinxephezelo ngokuthenga kwakho ku-Google Play Store?
Inani elithile elitholwa ngumsebenzisi ngamunye lizoncika ku- Izici ezimbili eziyinhloko: inani eliphelele elichithwe ku-Google Play kanye nenani labantu abafanelekela ukukhokhelwaIsikhwama esitholakala kubathengi sikhulu, kodwa kuzodingeka sahlukaniswe phakathi kwezigidi zama-akhawunti angase athinteke.
Imibhalo yecala isungula okungenani u-$2 kulabo abanelungelo lokukhokhaKusukela lapho, inani lizokhuphuka ngokusho kwe- ukuthengwa okuqongelelwe esikhathini esisukela ku-Agasti 2016 kuya kuSepthemba 2023. Okusho ukuthi, umsebenzisi othenge uhlelo lokusebenza olushibhile kuphela ngeke akhokhelwe ngendlela efanayo nomuntu onomlando omude wokubhalisela nokuthenga ngaphakathi nohlelo.
Ezimweni ezifanayo, ukuphathwa kwesikhwama kuvame ukubala inani isilinganiso sedola ngalinye elisetshenzisiweukuze umuntu ngamunye abelwe isabelo sesamba esibonisa ukusetshenziswa kwemali kwakhe okuhlobene. Nakuba izibalo eziqondile zingakacaciswa, ukubhekisela ku-$630 million okugcinelwe abathengi kubonisa ukuthi umthelela ungaba mkhulu kulabo abasebenzise kakhulu le pulatifomu.
Kuhle ukukhumbula ukuthi, noma ngabe amanani ngamanye angephezulu kakhulu, leli cala linenani elengeziwe: libacindezela ukuthi ukuthenga ngeselula kuzoba nokuncintisana okukhulu futhi kube sobala esikhathini esizayoEYurophu, lapho impikiswano mayelana namakhomishini ezitolo zezinhlelo zokusebenza isaphila khona, noma yikuphi ukunyakaza kulokhu kungadala izinguquko ezengeziwe zomthetho.
Kubasebenzisi eSpain noma kwamanye amazwe aseYurophu angamboziwe yisivumelwano sase-US, umthelela ungase ube mkhulu kakhulu ngenxa ngezinguquko ezinqubweni zomhlaba wonke ze-Google Play futhi ngenxa yethonya leli cala elingaba nalo ku uphenyo olwenziwe yiKhomishini yaseYurophu noma iziphathimandla zikazwelonkeEsikhathini esimaphakathi, lokhu kungaholela ezindleleni zokukhokha ezengeziwe futhi, mhlawumbe, amanani ancintisanayo kancane.
Imali evela esivumelwaneni se-Google Play izotholwa kanjani futhi kuphi?
Elinye lamaphuzu adala isithakazelo esikhulu kulabo abathintekayo yileli indlela isinxephezelo esizosebenza ngayoKulokhu, iziphathimandla zigcizelele ukuthi inqubo izoklanywa ngendlela yokuthi abantu abaningi ngeke kudingeke gcwalisa amafomu noma uqale izinqubo eziyinkimbinkimbi.
Ngokusho kolwazi olukhishwe ngabashushisi abahlukahlukene bakahulumeni, Izinkokhelo zizothunyelwa ngokuzenzakalelayo kusetshenziswa amapulatifomu okukhokha nge-elekthronikhi asetshenziswa kabanzi e-US, njenge I-PayPal ne-VenmoUhlelo luzosebenzisa ikheli le-imeyili noma inombolo yocingo. okuhlobene ne-akhawunti ye-Google Play yomsebenzisi phakathi nesikhathi esimbozwe yisivumelwano.

Futhi, isikhathi esiqondile kanye nemininingwane kuzoncika ezenzweni zabaphathi bezimali kanye nesinqumo senkantolo.
Izinsuku ezibalulekile kanye nethuba lokukhishwa esivumelwaneni
Ngaphezu kokulalelwa kwemvume ka-Ephreli 30, uhlelo lwecala luhlanganisa Isikhathi esinqunyiwe salabo abafisa ukuphuma esivumelwaneniLabo basebenzisi abakhetha balondoloza ilungelo labo lokumangalela i-Google ngokwabo Kumelwe bafake isicelo sokukhishwa ngaphambi kosuku lokuphelelwa yisikhathi. I-19 February ka-2026kungaba ngefomu eliku-inthanethi noma ngokubhala.
Ukwamukela inkokhelo kusho ukuthi ukudedela ilungelo lokufaka amacala abantu ngabanye esikhathini esizayo ahlobene nala maqiniso afanayoLokhu kuwumkhuba ovamile ezivumelwaneni ezihlangene zalolu hlobo, ezaziwa ngokuthi "ukuzikhipha": labo abangazikhiphi ngesikhathi baboshwa ngokuzenzakalelayo ngumphumela wesivumelwano.
Iziphathimandla zincoma ukuthi abathengi banake kuphela ukuxhumana okusemthethweni kanye newebhusayithi ezinikele yesivumelwanoLokhu kwenzelwa ukuvimbela ukukhwabanisa okungenzeka noma ama-imeyili mbumbulu azama ukuxhaphaza inzalo ekhiqizwa yinkokhelo. Uma kukhulunywa ngezivumelwano ezinkulu, imizamo yobugebengu bokweba imininingwane ebucayi kanye namawebhusayithi mbumbulu akuvamile.
Ngokuqondene neSpain kanye neYurophu yonke, yize Isinxephezelo sezezimali ngaphansi kwalesi sivumelwano asidluli ngqo Kubasebenzisi abanama-akhawunti ahlala e-EU, okwenzekile e-US kuqinisa umugqa osuvele ulandelwa yiziphathimandla ze-EU: ukuqapha eduze isikhundla esivelele samapulatifomu amakhulu ezindaweni zemvelo eziphathwayo futhi ukhuthaze izinketho ezengeziwe zesitolo sezinhlelo zokusebenza kanye namasango okukhokha.
Ekugcineni, leli cala lithumela umyalezo ocacile emakethe yedijithali: imikhuba enciphisa ukuncintisana noma enyusa ngokungekho emthethweni izindleko zezinsizakalo zedijithali Kungaphetha ngezivumelwano zezigidi zamaRandi kanye nokubuyekezwa okujulile kwezinqubomgomo zangaphakathi zeBig Tech. Kubasebenzisi be-Android, kokubili eMelika naseYurophu, kulindeleke ukuthi uhlelo lwe-ecosystem luzoba okuthile okuvulekile futhi okuncintisanayo ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.
Isivumelwano lapho I-Google Play izokhokha u-$700 million ngemuva kwecala lokulwa nokungathembani Lokhu kuholela ekunxephezelweni okuqondile kwezigidi zabasebenzisi abanama-akhawunti e-United States kanye nokuvuka komhlaba wonke mayelana nendlela izitolo zezinhlelo zokusebenza okufanele zisebenze ngayo. Nakuba amanani ngamanye angase abe mancane ezimweni eziningi, isibonelo somthetho kanye nezinguquko emithethweni yomdlalo kungaphawula ukuguquka kwekusasa lokuthengwa kweselula, njengoba kubonakala eSpain nakwamanye amazwe aseYurophu.
