      The two security features Google Play provides beyond web-installed APKs are the malware scanner that runs during app submission, and the ability to quickly delist apps that are discovered to be bad. Both could be opened up to all software sources rather easily.

      The malware scanner could run as an web-based APK-signing process, and those certificates could be revoked if malware is later discovered. This untying of Android security features from the Google Play Store would greatly advance Android’s safety as an open platform.

          And that’s it! There isn’t any magical security pixie dust achievable only with a smartphone app store monopoly. Any talk of this by platform companies is just silly propaganda.

          Would benefit you, you mean ? Stop trying to get @Google to bend over and go complain to @Apple, don't see you complaining about their cut to them. And frankly, loads of users won't install it, if it isn't from the play store, so good luck with that
