I’m happy to see this being noticed more and more. Google wants to destroy the open web, so it’s a lot at stake.

Google basically says “Trust us”. What a joke.

    It’s even worse without Google apps, but I was talking about SatetyNet/PlayIntegrity specifically.

    The mere act of unlocking the bootloader, without even modifying anything, will cause all the problems I outlined, and it’s the same API that Google is proposing to use by browsers to check for device integrity.

    Stuff depending on Google libraries, eh, that annoying but people can and will reimplement those, be it microG or Wine/Proton. Not being able to see the weather I literally could get just looking out the window because my bootloader is unlocked? That’s insane.
