I seriously doubt Google cares.
Google cares - if they can get a cut of the profits. They allow even scammy malware while blocking FOSS applications. Even recently, they blocked a FOSS chat app.
They don’t care about the app being or not being open source
My statement was rhetorical.

Just mention the “Linux operating system” and you will summon his spirit to interject
openai naming themselves open rip
This first one has a QR code linking to its source: https://github.com/niilopoutanen/rss-feed
Unless I missed it, the second doesn’t claim to be open source. In any case this appears to be its source: https://github.com/maco2ou/finefeed
The first link is for read me file with no source code avaliable.
The second link is a code last updated is 2 years back, the app is still updated in the app store with no source code.
Also inside the app it says that it’s GPL , with different link.
The code for the first is there, its just on other branches, they seem to have a very unusual way of using git.
Someone has started a new repo for tracking these: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/Open-Source-Confusion-Cases
Not really reporting but, can spread awareness
Edit: “someone” is the developer of BookStack
Note that there is not a requirement that they make their source code public, only that they provide source code to users who have received binaries. This means if this app is GPL licensed you can buy it and make a written request for the source code, and they are required by the GPL to provide it.
There is also not a requirement that the binary made available gratis. “Free” in free software or FOSS is about freedom, not price. This is a common misunderstanding of both terms.
