    Openness isn’t just a nice to have. It is essential.

    The difference between general purpose computing and gatekept walled garden computing is night and day.

    Identifying the devs is not in the “need to know” for Google. Google sells or helps to sell a general purpose open device where it is on us to exploit that device however we will.

    Now Google wants to switch to a walled garden, moderated development model.

    If Google promises it won’t use those dev IDs to moderate development, their promise is only worth the wind it moves and the sound it makes.
