- watermelon0 2y agoPlay Store needs to modify APK, to remove unneeded resources, and then repackage and re-sign it with the original signing key. Android requires signature with the same signing key, when updating the application.
- hnburnsy 2y agoSo any government can come along and tell Google to repackage a special version of the app for delivery to certain targets or a targeted population? That is seriously messed up, I hope they don't cave.
