- troyvit 1y agoThat's my take. And even if they aren't using the security argument in bad faith this time, they have so often in the past that now they can reap the rewards of using that argument in bad faith.

- zb3 1y agoI don't care about games I don't download. I don't see a problem with the fact that if I download and execute a binary file on linux without explicit sandbox, it can mess up my system, that's my responsibility. Google pretends to care about my security, but they actually care about cementing their monopoly.
