That's not a reason to pay more for an iPhone. Android allows you to install any browser you want (as opposed to Apple still not allowing real third party browsers), including Firefox with uBlock, which is much much better at privacy than Safari on Apple and as a bonus makes the internet 3x faster by blocking ads.
- RKearney 6y agoYes, we should all flock to an operating system developed by an advertising company in an effort to escape advertisements.
- Spivak 6y agoI mean you 1000% shouldn't go to any store, buy an Android phone and just use it if you want to avoid Google. But Android in isolation is fine as long as you consider it a hobbyist smartphone platform.
- lern_too_spel 6y agoIf that operating system does a better job of escaping ads, why not?
- jeffhuys 6y agoEh, I use Wipr. Exact same thing. PiHole if you want system-wide.
- scarface74 6y agoAn ad blocker that intercepts all of your traffic is better for privacy than one that doesn’t?
- t0mas88 6y agoIf it's open source and people can check that it doesn't anything hidden, yes
- scarface74 6y agoAre you compiling it and putting it on your phone yourself or are you trusting that the same version that they posted on GitHub is the same version on Google Play.
