- grishka 2mo agoThe apps that are the reason some people use smartphones at all — bank apps — require Google services and remote attestation that runs in an environment with more privileges than the OS kernel. Otherwise everyone interested would just unlock their bootloader and use a ROM with all the asinine restrictions removed.
- ColdStream 2mo agoFor the longest time the free software foundation (well Stillman) were against all mobile phones because of their ability to track people. In the last year they have finally admitted that they were not going to win that battle and have gone head first into trying to build a fully open software stack. Not saying it will be good or arrive anywhere in the next 5 years but they are very persistent and that tends to work in their favour.
