alt Hacker NewsPretty much everyone would hate it if a relative lost their life savings to a scammer, though they may not know it yet.
The idea isn't to protect the power users or average users. It's to protect the most vulnerable. Android is for everyone. Us power users will have a minor speed bump, but we can deal.

Android is for everyone, provided they submit to Google exclusively. It's not about power users, and that isn't a speed bump. You can protect vulnerable users without centralizing power like they did, but that's not their motivation so here we are.

I would buy this argument if the Play Store wasn't already full of garbage and viruses and scams.
