It is yet known that Android Developer Verification will not apply to apps installed via ADB as written in this support page:

Any app installed via Android Debug Bridge (ADB) will not require verification. This will ensure developers can easily build and test apps that are not intended or not yet ready to distribute to the wider consumer population.


This means keys are checked on installation but not on every run, since above exception exists.

Honestly, with that in mind, there is really no added benefits in terms of security for rolling out :android: Developer Verification - it only profits Google by supplying ID documents of developers to them, and provides no benefits for end-consumers whatsoever :blobcatjustright:

Since there is not much hope Linux phones gets so much better until 2027, when Google will (possibly) roll-out mandatory developer verification (signing with Google-issued keys) for all apps regardless of installation method, time to plan what to do in case worst scenario unfolds and :android: is no longer open for sideloading :blobcatthink:

@GrapheneOS may be an option now, but it runs exclusively on <img class=" title=":google:"/> Pixel devices, ironically - they may become more locked further as Android itself will be - because Google is evil :blobcateyes:

Could a new vendor emerge? Or, less likely, new operating system to conquer it all?

I'd say we need a :nokia: moment in the industry now :blobcatdonutnom:
