It's an attempt to functionally black list every android developer that doesn't want to give Google their personally identifiable information and fuck you for carrying water for this full on fucking fascist move. Your argument is bullshit.

    ....Do you not know what they're implementing?

    All it is, is a one time 24 hour hold when you want to install a non play store apk. You click "allow apks from unknown sources" and then a day later your phone behaves just as it does right now. The end.

    Except google has no business telling me what the fuck I can and can't do with my own fuckin property. Good for you that you like the taste of boot leather and the feeling of a heel on your neck but it's none of googles fucking business what I do with my devices in the first place including what I install on them. And the fact you're deliberately ignoring the clear chilling effect this will have on android open source developers by attempting to force them to register with Google proves you're engaging in bad faith and a shill. Go throat your boot somewhere they tolerate quislings.

    "oh my God. Oh dear. No. Not 24 hours before I can install f-droid. I'm crippled. Wasting away to nothingness. My edgelord life is ruined. I'm never going to leave the basement again. This one day has ruined anything worth living for. Bleeeeaaagh"

    I'm glad you like the taste of boot leather, I don't. Quislings giving away their rights left and right.

    I just don't mind a days worth of unconvince fir something that I know for a fact will end up helping some people. Waiting a single day to install whatever I want is a non issue and is better than the OS getting further locked down from apk permissions. It's already bad enough that there's so many root restrictions you can't really get around anymore.

    This is the OS getting further locked down.
