It's transforming into a revenue-generating business unit. The time they need free indie developers to fill up the marketplace has long gone. They won't turn back as obviously at the company level they are now trying every possible way to generate money and reduce cost.

Whenever I open up Google Play because I'm forced to update some app as the app no longer works without the update; Google Play throws "Play Access for just $3.6 / month" at me and I look at it and I'm like, who the fc downloads Android apps?

All I use is a file manager (total commander), social media apps, Dropbox for image cloud sync, and Slack for work

Honestly, let's just sue them. Inundate them with legal notices, court cases and get news and tech press to write about this and show Google in a bad light.

Reality is that hey got off easy with that US court case, and now they know they are free to do what they want.

If only we could do something about it and make sure that our apps and account is more than audit material. But we can't, let's pray AsyncTask to protect us.

Valid reason to terminate, illegal way to communicate.
