As a European born in communism, I find it dangerous for a communist and despotic state to yield so much power and for Europe to consider it business as usual, even if China may have started their own hybrid war with Europe, supporting Russ

Android phones are not tied to Google. You can have alternative app stores, you can download torrents on it and then play them with VLC, you can have the actual Firefox browser and even Chrome clones (e.g., Brave) are more capable than iOS

This is usually a misunderstanding of permissive licenses. You can't change the license of the code, even if that license is permissive enough for the code to be incorporated in proprietary works. I mean, often this doesn't really
