      According to Google yes, because the Play Store is the “official” way of installing software.

      But personally I hate this mentality and I don’t want a centralized and controlled way of installing software

        If I have to install an app store I don’t consider it to be the ‘official’ method. By default my phone doesn’t have it, a lot of android forks don’t, but if I have to break the law to add it, I guess I’ll stick with manually installing packages.
