A lack of trust
Google has an answer to the most problematic elements of the verification plan, but there is a gap everywhere, it is easy to see a conspiracy. Why? Let's look at the situation in which Google is located.
The courts have ruled that Google has acted illegally to maintain a monopoly in the Play Store – it worked for years against the interests of developers and users to make Google Play the only viable source of Android apps, and for what? The Play Store is an almost unusable mess of sponsored search results and proposed apps, most of which are little more than in-app purchasing factories that deliver billions of dollars every year.
Google has every reason to protect the status quo (it can bring the case all the way to the Supreme Court), and now it has suddenly decided that the security risk of Sideloaded Apps should be tackled. The way in which it is addressed places Google in the driver's seat at a time when alternative app -stores finally get the chance to thrive. It is all very useful for Google.
Developers on the internet express her statement to give Google their personal information. However, Google has decided that anonymity is too risky. We now know more about how Google will manage the information it collects about developers. Although information information information is publicly stated in the game, the video confirms that there is no public list of Sideload developers. However, Google will have the information, and that means it can be demanded by law enforcement or governments.
The current American administration has had harsh words for apps such as Iceblock, which successfully took it out of the Apple App Store. The new centralized control of Google about app distribution would make comparable censorship on Android possible, and the real identities of those who have developed such an app would also be in a Google database, ready to be summoned. A few years ago, developers Google may have trusted this data, but now? The goodwill has disappeared.
