Apple warns Australia against following the EU in mandating iOS app sideloading, citing security risks. Australia is considering forcing Apple to open its App Store to sideloading as part of competition reforms.

Yeah, too many grandma’s and tech-tarded dipshits use these devices. Unless you know what to look for, you really should stick to official app stores for security. It should be discouraged for average users, but available for people who want to risk it. It should be something you enable in settings - the ability to download off app store programs, just like on OSX.
