Seems like they are integrating with other apps to do the nearby swap services. For example, SHAREit is an officially annointed app for that. So that'll certainly work Google/Play is blocked. But it'll only work with apps that are in Play, that seems certain. Seems like they've learned from our example with F-Droid. .hc -- PGP fingerprint: EE66 20C7 136B 0D2C 456C 0A4D E9E2 8DEA 00AA 5556 https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex=0xE9E28DEA00AA5556 ___ List info: https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/guardian-dev To unsubscribe, email: guardian-dev-unsubscr...@lists.mayfirst.org
