The point of this is to break Fdroid, as the point of removing device tree publishing from their phones was to remove third party ROMs that would ignore the requirement for verification, as well as the changes to AOSP updates. This is a war on users that want to keep control of their phones and when it’s done, you will not be able to escape the enshittification and surveillance. And I’m convinced that was the price they paid to get out of the FTC lawsuit.
