I just want to preface that I am not in support of Apple or Google in their closed ecosystem.

I was specifically referring to you saying "Switzerland is implementing a digital ID[1]. It will be made available to the most common devices and is open source. However Google and Apple can just remove it, what then?"

It seemed like you were saying that because it is open source, it will be removed. I simply disagreed with that. Plenty of opensource software exists in the app store.

I'm not disagreeing that they have the ability to remove software from their app stores. They have done that before as you mention. That is a fact.
