Fair enough. I've had many issues on multiple Pixel devices with calls never coming through and it can be pretty frustrating.

Making small changes to policy like this will continue to have no effect on the negative externalities of AirBNB rentals. Will this improve guest privacy? No, hidden cameras are too difficult to detect and too easy to install. Will this pre

I'll agree with all these other answers. It's fairly easy to set up and I've been using it with no more issues than I would expect on stock Android for years. I don't use bank apps though, I just log in to their website.

Are you seriously arguing that cattle ranching is what's keeping our lands healthy right now? I'm pretty sure just leaving them fallow would be infinitely better for the health of the soil and ecosystems within a few years.

Ok, then let's move all cattle production to lands that's not suitable for growing crops. I'd be extremely happy with that solution as it will eliminate almost all cattle ranching.

We can still farm ruminants on open grasslands where those are appropriate ecosystems, but that will mean cutting meat production by, I don't know, 99.99% or so. Which is fine, it's not healthy to eat a hamburger every day.

That makes no sense to me. It's a confirmation that they are working on it, rather than ignoring it. It's nothing but value.
