  • Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play Store

    Jump

  • Sounds to me like this is a workaround so that Google can maintain control over who gets to release apps now that they can't do it by locking the apps behind Google Play. I wouldn't be surprised if being verified also includes some kind of fee.

  • How Eurostack could offer Canada a route to digital independence from the United States

    Jump

  • Canada has a lot to offer and to gain from being part of the Eurostack initiative.

    I think The Conversation just wrapped news about Eurostack in Canada wrapping paper to get views.

    Canada can't be a part of Eurostack; its goal is bring everything (tech) in-house. Aside investing capital so Eurostack can hit its lofty 300 billion euro goal in 10 years, I dont see what Canada can offer or gain from this. If the "gain" is that we stop Canadian dependence on US tech, we'd just be swapping one overlord for another.

    Yes, of course we could reduce our dependence on US tech, but Canada should be stealing this page from Europe's playbook and making their own Euro Canstack
