      I disagree with that assertion on a few levels. Regardless, thanks for the discussion.

      and any "answer" for Microsoft that doesn't address this simply means these organizations use Chrome OS.

      I definitely agree with that. It should be discussed, not assumed, though.

      there's nothing to "discuss". I've spoken to plenty in education who've stated so explicitly.

      Securing the OS and imposing a monopoly store are completely independent concerns, however much MSFT conflates them.

      How do you have enforced store standards without owning the storefront?

      You don't have Microsoft imposing their will on the industry at all. Rather, secure OS foundation, and freedom!

      If UWP is secure and trusted, as Microsoft claims it is, then you do not need a giant corporation as middleman.

      part of that trust comes from chaining certificates to a known entity.

      Digital signing is a great tool aiding users to make sound choices about what software to trust.

      There should be many trusted roots, as works well in securing https without one all-powerful corporation mediating.

          it doesn't work well in HTTPS; there are various bad parties who sign things they shouldn't.

          The certificate process is far more sound and transparent than any app store's vetting.

          even if the HTTPS model were good (it isn't) the choice of which roots to trust is still down to Microsoft.

          trusting indie stores is like trusting certificate authorities - & CAs can't be trusted

          HTTPS's use of multiple trusted roots also opens the door to nation-state tampering.

          Increased tampering in over-permission. Decreased tampering in over-censorship.
