Is there a way to disable android market ? Say for a device admin or anyone for that matter ? How does ATT do it ? Have they asked mobile manufactures to modify the Android src accordingly ?
Edit : Can this be done on non-rooted device ?

You needn’t modify the source.
The Market is just another app, but its typically stored in the
/system/appdirectory which is read-only without root access. If you root the device, or if you’re a manufacturer you simply need to remove thevending.apkfrom/system/app.
