Google Play to finally adopt review process

One thing that has always been great about Google Play is that developers can immediate publish their applications and games right to the market without any wait time at all. The same goes for updates that need to be pushed to their existing apps and games. However that appears to be changing now with Google announcing that they will begin reviewing apps and games to uncover any violations (TOS violations, inappropriate content, rating violations etc etc) and malware.

Google is implementing tools which scans apps and games automatically to find viruses and malware as well as more blatant types of violations. If something is flagged, that is when a human jumps in to manually check the app or game that has been flagged. This cuts down the wait time drastically since apps and games that don't get flagged can be pushed to Google Play right away.
