AFAIK Google has exactly this problem in China.
Developers resident in some countries, like China, are not allowed to
publish android applications. There must be a reason. Think that Google
uses its cloud services, which is a very serious privacy issue. Google
just can't allow any random chinese developer access a US or European
resident private's date if you don't trust. They don't meet the Q&A.
