How are they going to enforce this? Is side loading getting some extra signing step only Google can provide?
I shouldn't need to go through Google at all to release an Android app if it's not on their store. This is bullshit

Any device with Google Play services will enforce this. Any device that does not have Google Apps and services will not enforce this.
In this case, China actually has a leg up over the West because they haven't had Google Play services for a long time.
