Google has filed an appeal with the 9th Circuit Court, seeking a stay on a ruling mandating significant changes to its Play Store operations. This decision follows Epic Games' victory in its antitrust case against Google, which found the company guilty of monopolistic practices. The court's ruling requires Google to allow third-party app stores and alternative payment methods by November 1. Google argues that these changes pose security risks for users and could undermine competition with Apple's iOS. The tech giant claims flaws in the original ruling and urges for more time to implement the changes.
