»TikTok trackt Nutzer umfassend, auch wenn sie die App nicht nutzen: #TikTok verfolgt #Internet'nutzer inzwischen auch auf fremden #Web'seiten, selbst wenn diese die #App gar nicht installiert haben. Aggressive #Pixel erfassen sogar sensible #Gesundheit'sdaten, um detaillierte Werbeprofile zu erstellen«
Looking for an alternative to #Android on my #Samsung#foldable. While I appreciate the work that the company has put into the phone and software, and feel its reasonably secure, it still needs a non-Google OS for me to trust it 💯. Yes, I've turned Gemini and all other #AI crap off on the phone.
None of the current offerings support a foldable unless its a #Pixel which, as this is my sole computing device (via Dex) is a non-starter.
Recently Apple was also shown in court to be using its Siri voice assistant to eavesdrop on private or confidential conversations. Apple is paying a $95 million settlement.
Turns out, Google is not likely to entirely destroy privacy phone projects developed from AOSP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znQToRxsrCo
*GOS workaround
*Independent OEMs still able to sign
*Few apps opt to G store sign. Why have financial apps on a phone anyway.
Trochę mi się gryzie to, że z jednej strony #deGoogle rozpędza się w pewnych kręgach, ale z drugiej, żeby korzystać z #GrapheneOS, trzeba zapłacić Google’owi za #Pixel.a. Nie jest łatwo się wyrwać z tego zamkniętego kręgu big techów.
Kiedy kupiłem telefon #Pixel, wydałem trzykrotnie więcej niż normalnie. Uznałem, że to uzasadnione, bo w końcu będę miał dobre wsparcie oprogramowania (#GrapheneOS).
When I bought a #Pixel phone, I've spent three times as much as I usually spend. I figured out it's justified, since I'm finally going to have a phone with good software support (#GrapheneOS).
Okay, this would actually be pretty #funny, if it wasn't #tragic.
I installed
@GrapheneOS on my #Pixel 8. All runs good, installed sandboxed #Google Play Services. All my 4 banking apps work good, my government app for my ID and driver's license works as expected.
There's one app that refuses to work - #McDonalds app. For some God forsaken reason, MCD app has stronger and higher #security requirements than basically any #bank or #government application.
Wow, according to reviews when you start a #Pixel 10 Pro, 10 out of 16 GB of RAM are already occupied by the OS and (primarily) AI. Leaving just ~1/3 of the memory for all your apps. Crazy. 🤯
Fazit: Wir müssen uns konsequent um #Alternativen kümmern, diese unterstützen und bekannt machen. Dadurch können wir uns aus der Schlinge der #bigtech#Autorkraten befreien.
Die Aktion #unplugtrump vor ein paar Monaten war schon ein guter Start. Dann gibt es #endof10 und der Wechsel auf #Linux Oder das #GrapheneOS um auf #Pixel frei zu sein.
I have a #Pixel 10 Pro XL phone, which may be the first phone to give warnings when the phone connects to a rogue cellphone tower or IMSI catcher. The OS cannot block it; it can only tell you that someone read information, and it presents an alert. It says, ...
I found an alternative to #GooglePay on #GrapheneOS for contactless payments. Curve is a service that allows you to link multiple payment cards and use them with a single physical or contactless card.
So far, I haven't had any problems on #Pixel 9a.
Google to pay $68 million because its voice assistant eavesdropped on us ( www.cbsnews.com )

My Pixel 10 warned me 8 times in 30-minutes that there was a rogue connection made. Deeply concerning
