How many people you know downloads the apk on their android phone to get the app running?

Most of the PC gamers I know (maybe all) did this on the day Pokemon GO was available in NZ/Aus but not NA. Probably few of them had done it before.

I understand what you're saying, but PC gamers are a different crowd than the average Windows user. We'll do what we have to in order to get control of our own PCs back.

I guess on the one hand the lock down is a rational fear, because it's something MS would attempt. But I'm not actually scared that it would be achievable.

This is only because Pokemon GO made the decision not to roll out in all countries but somehow still work in those countries. i'd like to see the business logic behind that implementation. i had to help tons of people side load apps on their phones because they were turned off by the malicious warning that most manufacturers place by default now on activating sideloading functionality
