This could prevent the developer verification from coming to reality.

This is about the Epic Games court case regarding competing app stores and payment processors, not the Google developer registration requirement. A halt on previous rulings in the case was denied.

… requires Google to allow users to download rival app stores within its Play store and make Play's app catalog available to competitors. Those provisions do not take effect until July 2026.

… Google must allow developers to include external links in apps, enabling users to bypass Google's billing system. That part of the injunction is due to take effect later this month.
