  • The Google Play Store is making some consumer positive changes to its app and game policies.
  • One change will ban copycat apps and games that are made to look like other popular apps.
  • Another change will ban apps that generate interstitial ads that pop up without warning.

If you download apps from the Google Play Store, you may have encountered and complained about some annoying issues, such as apps that keep generating ads, or apps and games that are made to look like popular apps. It looks like Google has heard those complaints and are making some policy changes to the Play Store, (via 9to5Google) to get rid of these kinds of apps.
