Comment on Google's plan to restrict sideloading on Android has a potential escape hatch for users
drmoose@lemmy.world 6 days agoI don’t think this adds anything tbh as peoppe with adb would always be able to bypass this. The issue is that this kills distribution and thats exactly what Google wants - have full competitive control. Once they don’t like your app they’ll block your account and what do you do with your customer base? Give them adb install instructions? That’s basically a death sentence for any app.
