Given the choice to sideload apps, I'm sure it wouldn't matter what store you get it from--just the fact that you can install the apps. I'm sure people can skirt developer registration.
Exactly. The store is irrelevant, registration is what China is after.
Also, you’re wrong about developers bypassing registration. That kind of shit isn’t possible in China.
