In its email, Google states that it is closing down the program because of the "overall increase in the Android OS security posture and feature hardening efforts." This has led to researchers submitting fewer vulnerabilities than before.
- Vulnerabilities are found, which shows that the program is successful and needed.

Keeping the program will reap the benefits from both no. 1 and no.2 while closing down the program only enables no.2.
Not hard to see the priorities here....

It's time we get legislation that gives the consumer access to all encryption key pairs used in the product they purchased.
(For you who don't know what encryption key pairs are used for: they are used for the software to know that a change order, like "activate suspension", is legit and therefore will be executed.)
