While I don't even get your point, most people aren't going to sideload anything. Just like pretty much no one sideloads anything on their Android phone. It's irrelevant.
With there being no evidence of this supposedly widespread doctoring of records, sounds more like right-wingers got caught with their pants down driving a narrative to fit what and what they felt was right and what "TPTB" wanted, and you're all in denial now about it. The truth is out.
Seems you've decided that instead of adding value to the discussion by saying anything of interest, you're just quibbling about word definitions. Pretty lazy?
