I wonder how long this will last before they lock it down further. There was a lot of pushback this time around and they still ended up increasing the temperature of the metaphorical boiling frog. It still seems like they're pushing towards the Apple model where those who don't want to self-dox and/or pay get a very limited key (what Google currently calls "limited distribution accounts").

Will these measures eliminate fraud? Of course not. What a shame; I guess we'll need to lock down the platform even further.
This is so overt.

its so obvious what the real goal is. No sideloading. Period. But nice of them to show their intentions while still giving time to leave.
