Can spyware and malware then sneak into Android code? Was does this mean for the integrity of Android apps? Does “getting a point release to the Market in minutes” mean, then, that NO ONE tests?

Decreasing the workload on a small group of humans still seems like an improvement though ! Yep – getting rid of the humans would speed things up, but Apple clearly relishes the control !

It was a bad idea when we did that with Google Video, and it's the main reason YouTube won. By comparison, I can update my Android application at any time and as often as needed. It takes less than a minute to post a new version on the Market. I can't imagine waiting weeks to get approval for a point release.
