That’s why I don’t run Google services on my phone. CalyxOS instead uses microG, an open source replicator of Google play services. Since it isn’t signed with Google’s private keys, some things (particularly Google pay) don’t work, but idgaf.

They’ll just keep turning the screws tighter if you let them.

Don’t listen to their lies.

Ditto.

Don’t draw attention to yourself.

Fuckin’ A.

For the record, people voted for Adams as well. I’ll say new yorkers (the city people, to be clear) are generally down to earth. But we do make mistakes, and I think learn from them collectively pretty well.

For a city that big to work, you have to understand your neighbors. We do have some ultra-wealthy scum in the mix, and people like trump. But many more regular people who are mostly immune to copaganda and such.

No we fuckin did not.

Nobody was ok with that shit, I called my reps and of course literally observed it used only on black/brown folks in my neighborhood.

Fuck Bloomberg for that disgraceful nonsense.

I can also recommend CalyxOS. Locked bootloaders, open source emulation of all Google’s play services (meaning an open source binary running on your phone, filtering requests to Google’s servers with absolutely minimal/random info).

Basically I have anonymized access to the play store, and any apps I install other than Google pay work, no issue. ~~I believe even Google’s secure features work. There’s a reddit post about MitID: https://www.reddit.com/r/CalyxOS/comments/w2ordg/a_proven_way_to_use_calyxos_and_banking_apps_etc/~~

E: having read through the technical comments on graphene’s forums, looks like play integrity prevents MitID from running. The service offers free code generators which hang on your keys though.

I actually didn’t realize this is a CalyxOS-only feature.

Kinda curious that other roms aren’t including the “VPN via hotspot” truck

Who would’ve guessed skynet was purposefully created by the wealthy back when T2 came out amongst us general public?

I was like, “oh that’s so eerie” as a youngster. The truth behind this path has, unfortunately, been both more embarrassing and savage.

Why doesn’t a thousand year old culture matter to you? They work on peace and understanding oneself, and have never varied from that goal.

What would make that non-valuable?

Is it? 😂

Hopefully, said republicans will as well.

Fucking same, what the hell??

Facts.

Ah dude, shut the fuck up.

I love Massachusetts too, but you’re very wrong about Californians.

Love that username, even if he is innocent 😎

CalyxOS works with most banking apps, and is don’t degoogled.

Sure, you get that by default. Firewall only steps in for apps you explicitly block. There’s a toggle for if you want apps blocked by default for you to allow, if you prefer.

Point is, it’s a system that just works, stays out of your way and doesn’t phone home to anyone, just as you’d expect.

Whatever you wind up doing, good luck out there and have fun.
