Dr. Rose says Epic and Google’s proposed settlement would ‘fall far short’ of fixing things.

She tells the court it’s like a market owner who bars the doors and locks the gates after customers arrive, then a ditch outside fills with water “too deep and wide for anyone to cross.”

“It’s not going to help to tell the market owner to unlock the doors,” she says. “You have to lower the drawbridge for a while.” She says Judge Donato’s original injunction, which forces Google to crack open its app store by letting the apps out, is that drawbridge, and that Epic and Google are now trying to get rid of the drawbridge part.
