@forteller "And you can install a degoogled Android on it!"
Ah... I see they don't sell the /e/OS version directly to US customers. 🤔
🚨 #Google is collecting phone numbers /SIM from your phone by default now without asking for consent, here is how to disable it
I have a test phone with stock Android (and hence Google services) to test how the apps I develop behave there etc.
The other day I woke up with a notification in that phone, out of the blue Google was telling me they "verified my phone number" basically they stole/collected my phone number from my phone and sent it to their servers without any consent.
I know the trust bar is very low, but even then I didn't expect Google to do this.
Here is how you can disable the collecting of your phone numbers which is on by default:
Go to Settings -> Google -> All services -> Privacy & security -> Phone number verification. See attached screenshot.
Or even better: switch to #GrapheneOS #LineageOS or other #degoogled systems
Please boost and spread with your not-so-techie friends that might be using stock Google phones
EDIT: corrected typo: it is "all services" not "all devices"

#Android is supposed to be open, & your phone should be yours → NOT GOOGLES.
YES, BUT we need legislation to force release of Bootloader unlock codes for all phones.
Until we can controll a phone and its software it is not fully our property.
🚨 GOOGLE IS KILLING ANDROID FREEDOM. 🚨
This #DiDay we call on you to take action & sign the petition:
https://www.change.org/p/keep-android-open-stop-google-from-limiting-apk-file-usage
Because Google must not decide what you can & can't download on YOUR Android device.
This undermines one of Android’s defining features: the freedom to install software from wherever you choose. 😤
#Android is supposed to be open, & your phone should be yours → NOT GOOGLES.
It’s time to support open alternatives like @GrapheneOS ✊
⛓️ Today, Google has taken the next step in enclosing the #Android ecosystem by starting to enforce its developer verification program in Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand.
No better time than now to recommend the best apps from everyone's favorite #FOSS app store, F-Droid.
We'll start: Librera Reader, Image Toolbox, LocalSend, AntennaPod, FMD, Capy Reader, Unexpected Keyboard, Voice Audiobook Player, Aegis Authenticator...
