This could prevent the developer verification from coming to reality. At least it is a step in the right direction. We need more pushback on Google for this.

Unless I'm missing something, this has to do with the Epic stuff, not developer verification.

I think you're right. Still, the two causes are at least related topics. Take this quote for example:

Epic has said Google is relying on what it called "flawed security claims" to justify its control over Android devices.

The same can be said about Google's recent push to enforce developer registration.
