Edit: I do want to add that I HOPE this is what is needed to bypass this… If they block my modded and github APKs I’m going to go fucking nuclear
EDIT: further research shows this will not be based on play protect but will be implemented in the APK itself. I hope this shit can be patched out because you know Google is doing to do this with YouTube to kill revanced
You’ll probably have to disable Play Store for it to go away, Turning off Play Protect isn’t very effective anyway. Even with it off it has still disabled apps automatically and warned me. I disabled Play Store and the behavior went away.

I think you might be confusing this with App Integrity which Google offers to developers to include in their apps, this change is to prevent people from installing their own apps, likely with a dialogue to interrupt it. Play Protect can already interrupt installations asking you to agree or not. That’s in all likelihood the mechanic they’ll use to enforce this.
So disable play protect and this goes away
