Oddbean new post about login | logout Probably because Android is no better and GrapheneOS still uses Google Tensor closed souce bs. They ALL suck!
Wow I didn't know that. So a degoogled phone is still tracked by Google? I was going to get a new phone in 2024 that is degoogled.
No such thing as the degoogling
Can you elaborate? Why is everyone talking about it?
Exactly. Everyone that uses GrapheneOS likes to ingore closed source Tensor chip it runs on. You cant degoogle with a Pixel. Its not possible.
Interesting thread... Seems that it's mainly software to worry about? Isn't doing grapheneos better than what I'm currently doing (standard Droid on Google) https://www.reddit.com/r/degoogle/s/TaCkj7vUPt
I don't know. At least with Graphene I don't constantly have to find workarounds for living my lifestyle. It seems obvious that Apple will always gatekeep against Bitcoin or other "freedom tech" software and of course they'll continue working with the Government(s).
Right but your GrapheneOSS is running with closed source Tensor.
Yeah. We need a pleb phone.
^This. If anyone thinks Tensor wouldn't come with built in backdoors, they probably don't remember when Qualcomm was caught doing just that in Samsung Galaxies. https://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/SamsungGalaxyBackdoor That said, mass surveillance is automated, and replacing the phone's operating system will mess with the spooks' workflow big time.
