Yet another example of security without consideration for user experience and freedom. Information security is a careful balance between not using technology at all and getting things done using technology. Sometimes you have to wonder if heavy-handed solutions like this actually helps maintain this balance for users, or just serves to ensure a company's bottom line.
This is the line of reasoning that has resulted in me being unable to sign up with a shocking amount of house rental companies, thanks to Play Integrity on the android side of the coin. Does it improve security for me? I would argue it doesn't, as it would force me to use unpatched versions of Android. If it's not serving the user, who is it for?
