The Day that Android Died.
The applications that he was distributing (sort of) were applications that were already on the users phone.
But in order to install the new rom you need to erase all and start from fresh, there is no easy way to leave them untouched on the phone, so in effect he was just re-installing the applications.

Google handled this very poorly, they could have went to the developer in a more open and friendly manner and help come up with a solution, instead of causing problems for all of the Android Community.

I think this has seriously damaged Google's reputation.

I know they have certainly adjusted my "Google Experience"

For me this is the day Android Died.
