If you have to compromise your values to allow such things, an example might be TikTok with Play Services on Graphene is possible, but you will be permanently banned shortly for not being spyable enough and failing modified ROM detection, would you want to compromise by re-adding what's basically a vulnerability if it increases userbase?
- Schroedingersat 4y agoIf it means that I only have to convince someone to give up a tiktok account they don't have rather than tiktok and pinterest amd facebook and whatsapp (and subsequently the ability to communicate with any of the local community groups) and the local covid app that allows you to leave the house and their university app and any kind of paid media, then yes. A phone that my partner owns that I can actually realistically ask her to use is better than one that is secure against an attack that isn't even in my threat model and is a complete non starter.
- josephcsible 4y ago> you will be permanently banned shortly for not being spyable enough and failing modified ROM detection Wait, do they actually do this too, or is this a hypothetical you made up for the example? Or did you mean Snapchat instead of TikTok, which I know does actually do that?
- ev1 4y agoI picked it as a random example but yes, it does do safetynet/aggressive device fingerprinting/bans root (magiskhide used to work for a bit afaik)/collecting as many identifiers as possible based on version of android.
