mhoyeIt's worth thinking of app stores in general - and Google's upcoming Android mandatory developer registry process - as threats to national sovereignty as well as individual software freedoms.
If the orange madman can mandate on a whim that ICC judges be digitally unpersoned from American-controlled systems, people should be thinking really, really carefully about whether or not the same thing can happen to, say, their electrical grid.

Attached: 1 image I deactivated Google Play on my phone. The electricity company app was the first to be bricked. 'You must update.' I wrote to them: ’I don’t have Google or Apple. Where else can I update the app?’ Nowhere else, they replied. I wrote (politely) back: ’I can’t use your app any more then. It’s an odd requirement to make of your customers. A Norlys customer can only access all Norlys services if they are also a customer of one of two specific private for-profit US companies.’ #DanmarkSkifter
