Minimal Phone 2 Debuts as First Third-Party App Store on Google Play

Google has opened up its Play Store to third-party app stores, marking a significant shift in the company's approach to app distribution. The first such store to take advantage of this new policy is Minimal Phone 2, an Android app store that offers users a range of alternative apps and games. This move could have major implications for the way developers distribute their apps and for the competitive landscape of the mobile app market.

Meanwhile, concerns have been raised about the security of UK military drones after it was revealed that some models had secret cameras that sent data to China. However, officials have downplayed the risks, suggesting that the issue is not as severe as initially thought.
