Also hot take but the new #Android sideloading unlock requirements are kinda reasonable. We'd literally need to implement something like that in mobile Linux once it reaches the mass market. (Like actually mass not just a bigger niche.) Scams coercing people into installing malware is a VERY REAL PROBLEM.

Actually psychology research is much needed to properly test how software can try to break coercion like that.. I bet some dedicated scammers would try to guide their victims through the entire 24h delay. But it's probably good against random links and such

pointless (even from a "security through paranoia and constant reboots"-mindset)
proves that Google might as well be run by demons and that they must be dissolved by the end of the decade
