More developers leads to more malware developers. Combine this with a government with a proven track record of not responding to cyber crime reports, and you get a recipe for pain and suffering.
If you want cold hard evidence with this look no further then with the proliferation of fake Microsoft Service Providers, which was a direct result of continued efforts by North American companies to outsource IT support to India.
I don't give a flying fuck what the color of a person's skin is. And it is indeed a terrible tragedy to the endless number of talented Indian developers that their nationality is associated with malware and online scams. I suspect this is ultimately a result of being a nationality of 1.252 BILLION people, but having spent countless hours recovering users devices who were unfortunate enough to fall to such criminal activity, I can't help but notice a recurrent theme and have an incessant need to call out the butterfly effect of such initiatives in naive hope that something will be done about it.
Furthermore the Apple Appstore Approval criteria is absolutely relevant at reducing malware on Apple's platform, as well as the countless other barriers to entry of developing for Apple such as having a god damn expensive Apple computer, and the fact that Android devices are infinitely more popular in third world countries due to the cost of the equivalent Android phones and phone plans.
But no I'm probably just racist right.
