    If they want a lot of play store banking apps + other things that opt into play protect to work they’ll need to add the signature verification requirement.

      Will the banks in Korea, EU and many other areas where Samsung phones are very common keep that restriction if it meant alienating that many users? I doubt it. That’s why I think the support of a big player on this would be a killing move.

      Also I’m not 100% convinced that it’s impossible to have some verification without it depending on this one change.

        That’s a really good point, basically throw their weight around a bit eh?
