As pointed out in other replies I don't think you're doing a good job to connect bank fraud to sideloading here, and therefore I don't really believe that they are so directly connected. But for the sake of discussion I can assume there's some truth to it. It is true that Apple's restricting freedoms could have some positive side effects, so I'm happy to go along with this gut feeling. > I suspect that the EU will regret forcing Apple to enabling sideloading when the number of fraud cases go up. Maybe some degree of that is worth it? The functioning of digital markets and preventing platform monopolies seems very intrinsically valuable for both ethical and economical reasons. Moreover, it's highly unlikely this will be in some cartoon situation with some massive explosion of fraud. What if this is just a small price worth paying? Something we need to accept in our lives and help further focus education efforts? That seems like a more valuable discussion than most of the discussion going on in this thread.
