    It’s in the article : “Samsung’s Auto Blocker feature takes things a bit further.The feature, fully blocks the installation of apps from unauthorized sources, even if those sources were granted the REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES permission.”

      Damn. Finished the paragraph before it and made the comment. Lol. Interesting. Seems redundant.

        This is only for phones that come with One UI 6.1.1 by default and there’s a page during OOBE setup with a toggle for this “feature”.

        An update to your existing phone will not turn on this block, it’s only for new phones.

        I don’t have a Samsung but I would imagine that this only blocks new installations and looks like that it can be easily disabled if you don’t want it
