Google appears to have quietly rolled out a feature to the Play Store that allows users to remotely uninstall apps from other devices.

I don't think you even read the summary in the OP that describes exactly what this feature does. This is a feature for users for their owned devices. You can remotely install apps already. Now you can do the opposite.

I thought the joke is that their real goal is to misuse it and they pretend it to be a feature.

oh good, i was starting to think everybody thought it was an actual question!

edit: lol, such hostility around here, y'all cute
