Is google even able to do it? They are unable to push os updates directly in most cases. Idk if they already have the ability to remotely uninstall apps. Maybe through the appstore?

Even that is pretty limited since it can be disabled, and even if they changed it to not be officially able to be disabled by users, ROM makers can still disable it in various ways, and since their problem is TV boxes, including those shady unlicensed ones, I’m betting those would simply disable the feature via their unlicensed Android Roms.

Sorry let me clarify, when I say unlicensed I meant that they are using Google Play services without Google’s permission or certification.
