Meta and Microsoft Join Google in Newly Restructured App Defense Alliance (opens in new tab)

App Defense Industry sounds like the tip of the bloody spear in the war against General Purpose computing & user agency. This sounds like people who make Android Play Integrity API nee SafetyNet Attestation API. https://developer.android.com/google/play/integrity

It's going to be a year or so before native apps have a much worse much nastier version of Web Environment Integrity to make sure users absolutely cannot take their own stross around the walled garden.

Defend against malware abuster abuse, by making sure whatever the software secure against users. This is the infernal compromise, the jailing of the user inside a prison of computing.

> Launched by Google in 2019, the App Defense Alliance was established to ensure the safety of the Google Play Store and the Android app ecosystem by focusing on malware detection and prevention. With a growing emphasis on app security standards, the Alliance expanded its scope in 2022 and is now the home for several industry-led collaborations including Malware Mitigation, and App Security Assessments for both mobile and cloud applications.
