> Techically the money OEMS have to pay covering certification does not go to Google.

OP was referring to license fees, which google does not charge. Mandatory certification by a third party is different from that, and judging by the numbers in that article amount to less than a dollar per device (probably far less for flagship devices that sell millions of units?).

> You may be right that most OEMs don't agree to it. But the larger ones that are on the western markets definitely do.

No OEM agreed to licensing fees, they don't exist (as far as is publicly known).
