On the gaming front since Steam released Proton the future is now uncertain for Microsoft hegemony. Linux can now run AAA titles on launch, with the only significant barrier that's left being kernel-level anti-cheats. But with WINE&#x2

Docker is pretty portable by design. If you use bind mounts you can just scp the docker-conpose.yml and your bind mount volumes to your new server and you're done. If using Docker-managed volumes you'll need to docker cp the data

In this case it requires the presence of Google Play Services. I'm unsure if there's any evidence that they can install apps without it being present.

Bootloader unlockable is sufficient to replace the OS. Rooting is likely to die in the near future now that Google hired the Magisk dev.

It's hard to get good info on what capabilities it does have. Here's what I've gathered though I'd like to learn more: Modems are often isolated by being connected via USB, or if on your SoC the modem has DMA then it&#x2

I thought this was well-known, Android is not private at all until you degoogle. Unlock your bootloader then install a ROM without Google Play Services such as GrapheneOS, CalyxOS or LineageOS. You can consider installing microG also as an

Personally I'd rather deal with a few bugs than deal with a hostile operating system which is determined to surveil me and curtail my freedom of choice using dark patterns and uncontrollable settings.

Signal hides metadata better however it's based in the US, you are required to use your phone number as an identifier and Moxie refuses to allow Signal to be decentralised. Security-wise they both use the double-ratchet algorithm to en

IOMMU groups are supposed to compartmentalise modems here, but as far as I know this tends to be blackboxed on Qualcomm processors.

Except there still won't be long-term support from OEMs, you've instead just pushed the security responsibility onto Fuschia and hoping that the kernel maintaining a strong sandbox will be sufficient to mitigate all driver securit

Unfortunately this is even less likely in future once Fuschia matures and Google are able to replace the kernel with it on Pixel phones.

You could also accomplish this via uBlock Origin with increased granularity and it has SNI capability. UO in hard mode can for instance block 3rd party and/or 1st party JavaScript, and whitelist permissible scripts.
