They won't sign your store app and it won't install on anyone's phone. And they'll probably add any previously signed versions to a revocation list so existing installs of your store will be deleted immediately along with all the apps you distributed. That's the power of remaining a gatekeeper...

Now that weems only enforceable through notarization and the DMA clearly states that this is not allowed.

(They'll argue that this fee is required to keep the platform save which is obviously bullshit)
