Buying a device that only runs OEN Android is ridiculous for this exact reason. We need to decouple phone hardware from phone software, as we did with computer

We need to decouple phone hardware from phone software, as we did with computers.
- bilkow 1y agoWe do, but I don't see it happening anytime soon. Many banking / government apps and even some games use the Play Integrity API, which AFAIK is starting to require remote attestation for newer devices. As it's usually not viable to opt-out of those, the solution seems to be having a separate device.
- watusername 1y agoFortunately (or unfortunately depending on your perspective), Play Integrity is bit of a joke at the moment thanks to a group of OEMs who just can't seem to secure their private keys. Unrevoked keyboxes are publicly available.
