Oh wow, I had no idea about the unintended consequences of the DMG + App bundle installation mechanism. Maybe the issue could be ameliorated with a self-updater built-in into the app? Not a separate daemon, but something that by running ins

Good question, I think it should be the corporate one, and even if it might be a bit more work to setup, it's definitely in the company's interest, since then the applications that are installed can be sandboxed and be vetted&#x2F

That still means that (after a few grueling weeks) 1/3rd of the patients could survive. Moreover there's all the non-covid19 patients that could also survive if they wouldn't find the ICU fulls. That's not irrelevant. Bt

No. There are things intentionally included and things intentionally excluded from the sandbox. App-specific data storage is part of the former, and external storage access is part of the latter (this changed with Android 10, anyhow). Epic&

So did the British... a more cogent rebuttal is to point out that US companies like IBM didn't really need to do business with Nazi Germany for their survival. I trust Google to not be generally evil, but when they still do something e

I'm pretty sure it is. I also spent some time to click around to find the opt-out toggle, but that's nowhere to be found. I guess that sooner or later they'll be forced into compliance.
