A small UK software biz has complained of "eerily Orwellian" treatment from Google after its wares were suddenly suspended and then banned from the Play store, with no meaningful discussion possible.

Pocketwood Ltd had three apps on the store, under the MyAV brand, all of which are controllers for home AV setups. One of the apps is for Sony TVs, one for Samsung, and the other a universal remote. They are subscription applications which, according to managing director Kingsley Smith, amassed "many thousands" of subscribers, having been available for over five years.
