    It’s all to protect YOU, the dear valued customer. So you will not be harmed by all those evil "indie dev-apps and this opensource-shit that will ruin and kill your precious device.

    Sigh…fuck you google, just fuck you. You became the brain-cancer of the internet.

    But they will get away with it with zero problems, as 99,99999% of all users probably don’t care or don’t know, and just accept it.

    And next year the 24h-“workaround” is also removed, due to security a reasons because it was heavily “exploited”.

    If Google follows thru on allowing installs after a single 24hr waiting period, I’m afraid we’ll never be taken seriously again as this will be seen as a major overreaction. Then Google will take advantage of that to really tighten the screws.

      “Hey bro can you get my phone to stop displaying an ad every 3 to 5 seconds… It’s driving me crazy… also can you check if I’m hacked… my phone be making notification sounds?”

      well, I can’t tell them to come back after 24h so i can finish the job, that would be weird… they’ll probably think idk what I’m doing and probably never come back…

      this process is just stupid, even for troubleshooting purposes
