Google asks what we think of their plans to block Android app installs outside of Google Play (unless the developers let Google verify their identity and pay a fee).

@grote I’m guessing it will go about as well as the XSLT thing.
Thank you @grote for sharing this.
In addition to telling #Google that locking down #Android is bad, I'd also recommend every app developer to write to the @EUCommission's #DMA enforcement team and tell them that this practically circumvents Article 6(4) of the #DigitalMarketsAct, which was supposed to enable 3rd party app (stores).
The EC is discussing the same question with #Apple atm and they have to understand what happens if they let this happen.
