Playstore is the one that contains majority of the malware and people get it only that way. I rarely know of people side-loading that have issues. https://www.google.com/search?q=ars+technica+playstore+malwa...

If you change password - all other logins are signed OUT.

This is stupid. You need to do some sort of delegation. If some one logins now in USA and 10 min later a login is detected from Singapore. And again if US login is detected - this will throw any security to bonkers. May be you/your cli

> It's my account that's at risk of hijacking, so I should be able to decide. If I opted for no 2FA despite Google begging me to turn it on every login, that's my decision. If that is your argument then it is their service
