> iv. Google shall not offer any monetary/ other incentives to, or enter into any arrangement with, OEMs for ensuring exclusivity for its search services.

Can someone explain why this is imposed? It seems like a fair deal if google offers money to samsung to be the default search provider. How is it different from google offering money to mozilla for the same?



Setting as default is quite different from "ensuring exclusivity." I'd have no problem banning Google from paying companies to be the only search engine usable on a phone.
