Yup and then they move the spyware/malware/etc into a layer below where nobody knows what is inside…

How is your baseband modem in your smartphone doing, by the way?

Not need to force anyone to use anything mate!

Here is my personal example: I made my choices a long time ago…

I ditched ANY:

• M$ related product/service;
• ALL Meta (as in Wazaaap);
• closed source apps;
• i have 0 IoTs around my ass, but a nice computer infrastructure built in more than a few decades;
• no friends around with i Phones …

AND still I need to do so much about privacy and my life in general and I continue to learn & apply as much as I can…

Also, I kindly invited and explained others why I choose to ditch products/software/companies/people that do not respect Humans in general and consider all of as as being just dumb “assets”…

Indeed it feels lonely sometimes, but i prefer the silence rather than noise/propaganda/parotting/or really any kind of bullshit.

Peace!

You can, but the question is why would you contribute to their data collection? Try: signal.org

I’m using /e/ os for more than 3 years on different devices (with some customizations) and it works like a charm. An important aspect is that you can install e on any phone that has the bootloader unlock and supports GSIs - theoreticaly any device that runs Android > 9

/e/ has a gsi image which is neat!

I don’t use nor promote any banking apps or other G**gle/proprietary dependendent apps.

Why nobody talks more about e.foundation /e/ OS?

Enlighten me please 🙂
