Play Services have a way to install applications in the background ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23695170/how-to-install-a... ) that does a signature check, and refuse to work if the request didn't come

Beside this, Firefox is not really welcomed (and a drop is planned eventually) on F-Droid because it's really complex to build, depends on some closed source libraries (Google Play Services, for example) and has lots of tracking in it

Interesting, I've been wondering about this myself lately, as I've started to read on an e-book reader ~30 minutes before going to sleep as a part of my routine. Too bad they only used iPads for this study. I wonder if it's b

The easiest way would be to use GeoDNS. You just have your DNS server send out a different IP according to the IP of the request. See http://www.caraytech.com/geodns/ and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#

Your name is right in your profile, so pdx could have easily got your gender from it. Maybe pdx even opened your site, where you have a photo clearly showing your gender. It's also possible that English is not pdx mother tongue, maybe

You can! You just need to make the F-Droid app a System app, then it can install applications without having to keep the "unknown sources" options on. You can use this app to do it: https://f-droid.org/repository&#
