This is nice to see. It's fully in line with a report [1] by a (relatively new) French "expert group" within the government found. They were looking specifically at the security implications. Of course, the report is short and written for political decision makers, so not super technical.

> The checks
made during the audits conducted by current application stores owned
by operating system developers are indeed all reproducible by third

- com 5y agoThis is a surprisingly well-written report that an intelligent reader with exposure as an end-user to the mobile phone ecosystem should be able to comprehend, that summarises the risks around malware and app stores and a possible approach to opening up side loading of apps structurally. Masterful communication on top of solid analysis. I’m going to keep a copy just to review when I’m writing my own reports to stakeholders.
