Comment on Google's plan to restrict sideloading on Android has a potential escape hatch for users
Ulrich@feddit.org 3 weeks agoWhy would you want to call it sideloading when you’re not loading from the side?
I don’t know what you think “loading from the side” means? I use the term for the same reason I use any other term: to convey ideas through common understandings.
It’s just doing what Google wants you to do.
Why the fuck would Google care what words you use?

The words people use influences public opinion and the bottom line of corporations such as Ford and Google.
