Japan passes law that will require Apple and Google to allow third -party app stores and payment providers on devices running their mobile operating systems.
Lawmakers justified the law on multiple grounds that the smartphone market has become an oligopoly in which would-be competitors find it very hard to get a toehold meaning innovators are deterred from even trying to crack the market.
Non-compliance could result in fines that represent " 20 percent of relevant turnover".
