So Epic release an installer for Fortnite outside of the play store, @TimSweeneyEpic bitches about the store the whole time, and when Google do Epic's job and find a security issue, wait for the patch to go out and then alert users to the issue, Tim whines even more about Google?
Case in point: This sort of policy would be disastrous if Google applied it to to security flaws they discovered in their own software, given the Google/IHV/carrier bottlenecks in pushing Android OS updates.

Can Google even see adoption rates of updates for software outside of the Play Store? If not, then your point may be moot.

Epic released an app that made its users vulnerable, they get called on it and had 7 days to rectify and Mr Sweeney's response is to change the way in which Google reported the vulnerability because it highlighted the very issue that EVERYONE had about releasing outside Play?

Uninstalled fortnite and epic software. 90 days response time is unacceptable and massively irresponsible !!! Don't make excuses u have only 1 game to take care of. DO YOUR JOB ! OR STAY HOME. It is 2018, time to rethink quality of technology instead of the next themed skin..kids
