Goodbye pseudonyms! Android app store reviews will now show your Google+ name and picture

There will be no more pseudonymous reviews on Google Play – from now on, any feedback you leave on Android apps will be accompanied by your name and photograph. Google hasn’t given you anyway of opting-out of using your Google+ name and picture. Your name on previous reviews will appear as A Google User. The software giant has also begun encouraging YouTube users to also start reviewing their YouTube content using their Google+ social network. The Naked Security writer Graham Cluley says the move is part of Google’s relentless drive to encourage the world to give a damn about its social network.”]
