Interesting situation here. Whats the name for oposite chicken-egg problem. You mention that linux phones do not support banking apps and google even being antonym for privacy, has still increasing user base. But we are in situation where you must use google to be able to use banking apps. Vicious cycle?
For banking aps to work you must install them from play store. To be able to use play store you must agree with google TOS. If google dicides your evil, you will not be able to use banking app anymore :(

- ryukafalz 6y agoThe difference is that when driving a car, the risk is from the fallibility of yourself and your fellow drivers, not from a single giant megacorp that can decide to reach down and mess with you. (But by the way, we shouldn't accept car fatalities as inevitable either! They're far more likely still than they should be. Street design and infrastructure priorities can slow traffic down and encourage people to use safer forms of transportation when feasible. Just look at the Netherlands.)
