I can advise Pichai to lick my nuts
It’s not often I upvote a comment suggesting someone lick their nuts.
I agree with him. If you don’t know what you are doing and just blindly install something off the Internet, it’s a security concern. I would not recommend that most users side-load apps, either. You have to remember that this crowd is not representative of the average user.
Just don’t take the option away from those of us who do know what they are doing.
I’ll keep sideloading if they don’t allow F-Droid, NewPipe and LibreTube on the Play Store.
Be Pichai.
Tell people not to sideload apps fOr SaFeTy.
Find out [Insert Malware App] has been on the play store for months and tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people have downloaded it.
Can someone please tell Pichai that I can do whatever I want with my phone that I paid for. (Also tell him to fuck off and that he can suck ma balls)
I advise him to stfu
Could you imagine Laptop manufacturers saying “do NOT download apps from other websites. ONLY download from the Windows App Store”
Like, fuck off Pichai, you’re insane
Are phones the only devices out there that receive such scrutiny in the tech world?? My laptop can literally do the exact same thing but better
People should do that though
It’s good security practice to use your package manager and if you have to download off the internet then you should build it yourself
Well, not all the apps I want are on your store, so 🤷♀️.
Those who complain about iOS being a “walled garden” should understand why Apple doesn’t allow sideloading.
We already know. It’s because Apple wants their 30% cut, you fuckin’ dunce.
What makes Apple think they’re the only ones who can “keep their users safe” from malware? Google can’t do it just as well? Amazon can’t? Samsung? Sony? Wal-Mart? F-Droid? Plenty of malware on the Apple app store.
