Benefit of having a Pixel, you can install Graphene OS and get rid of all of the BS and not have a second layer of Samsung's shit all over it.

The amount they make Android insecure can not be overstated.

Currently there is a guy in court for giving a duress-password to border guards. From nuisance to a real problem in 30 seconds. =3

he would be in same issues with Samsung and not giving the password

let's blame the tool, not the person using it, I assume you also think cars kill people, not the the people driving the cars...


Every iPhone and Android device can be cloned in a few minutes with physical access. Others with standard base-band cell LTE/G5 modem devices are remote tapped in seconds without user knowledge.

The fact is technology can never fix legal policy, privacy protection, or societal issues. =3


> Every iPhone and Android device can be cloned in a few minutes with physical access.

Misleading: The data can usually be copied quickly and easily is the encrypted version.


There are companies that are specialized in cracking phone logins with unpublished zero-click $370/unit product exploits. An LLM will not help you kid.

Also the joke meme: https://xkcd.com/538/

The only indication of a remote-compromised system is apparently a slight drop in battery life, and higher than normal background data. Privacy is dead. =3


> An LLM will not help you kid.

Wow, you've developed such a crazy allergy to seeing a colon that you're becoming one.

I'd say "have fun" with the solipsistic world where everyone who disagrees with you on the internet is a bot, except that in the long term I know you won't.


Sealioning will not help folks either. Best of luck. =3

This is a thread about Graphene, so not exactly accurate.

Maybe, a rickety stack of volunteers relying on uncoordinated hobby projects may have regression tested coding standards above a multi-billion dollar market-cap corporation.

Or... is relying on installation obscurity for security theater.

Both options are likely to have kernel and other exploits published. A disposable phone for traveling into hostile territory is still recommended. =3


Are you sure this isn’t minor YouTube celebrity Ray William Johnson? =]

Would unlikely do YT content unless I needed a cheap video CDN or RTMP service.

Do people still make actual money competing with Slop clips? I wonder how often Alphabet actually cuts a meaningful check for long-tail content. =3


What’s that have to do with my stupid joke about your emoticon and Ray William Johnson’s =3?

Don't worry about it... =3

The answer is: as many times as it crosses their view threshold for payments lol

Ok, if YT pays $1k to $8k for 1m views, and has a minimum $100 check payout.

Than that is approximately 100k to 12.5k views to see even $100.

That exposure incurs around a 1% psychopathy rate for approximately 125 to 1000 users that would have no problem stealing your stuff.

I find it unbelievable people would actually sign up for that experience. =3


Which one is the "they"?

Samsung. Graphene is outstanding. Far and away best in class.

Probably meant Alphabet and Facebook ad marketing telemetry service embedding. =3
