I’d be interested in seeing a statistic of how much this reduces the impact of intentionally malicious apps. I know it’s not the real motivation, but still.
It’s possible that part of why those attacks don’t really happen is precisely because it’s already so controlled. That said, I still think this is BS. Don’t mistake me as defending Google here.
