Keep Android Open
In August 2025, Google announced that starting next year, it will no longer be possible to develop apps for the Android platform without first registering centrally with Google.
This registration will involve:
- Paying a fee to Google
- Agreeing to Google’s Terms and Conditions
- Providing government identification
- Uploading evidence of an app’s private signing key
- Listing all current and future application identifiers
Sign the open letter. And get active to help oppose the enactment of the policy in other ways listed on the website. Are there any more ways to oppose this?
THIS Microsoft? I wouldn’t touch it if they did.
I think I salty that because Window Phone tanked, Nokia tanked with them in USA. My last Nokia was made out of a bowling ball! Microsoft apparently wants completely out if hardware. They thrown no cares to the Xbox console either. I understand gamepass killed Xbox. I just expected Microsoft to be further ahead than they are.
