Google continues to stress that sideloading isn’t going away. Power users will still be able to install apps from any source they choose. The difference is that unregistered apps will require extra steps, while apps from verified developers should continue to install normally.

Still scummy as fuck.

This is just the first of many, slow changes to close off Android and milk the userbase.
