Google has blocked full file upload capabilities in the Nextcloud Files Android app, affecting user experience and raising concerns about fairness, power, and competition in the digital ecosystem.
Nextcloud claims Google revoked the 'All files access' permission, leading to the disablement of uploads for non-media files on Android.
Nextcloud alleges unfair treatment under the guise of security, stating that Google is favoring its own apps and limiting competition in the cloud ecosystem.
Despite Google's recommendations to use alternative frameworks, Nextcloud argues that they do not meet its requirements and regulators have been slow to address the issue.
