The trouble is that if you provide a mechanism to side-load, people will be convinced to use it without understanding the risks they are taking. See also the recent issues with MDM. In that sense, it kind of is either/or for the average user.
- mikenew 7y agoIs side-loading really that common for an Android user? It hardly seems widespread. Certainly not for your average, tech-illiterate consumer.

He's a dev and poweruser who knows what he's doing. All the other dozens of users only have apps from Google's app store.
