The breakup this is referring to is splitting off the Android operating system from the rest of Google.

Even if you split Android off from Google, the Play store is still the Play store, nothing would change except it wouldn’t be under Google anymore.

There’s a problem too saying “it’s a monopoly”, as long as Apple is running their app store and Google has theirs, there’s no monopoly. Change phones. Problem solved.
