The move comes as Apple removed ICEBlock after direct pressure from U.S. Department of Justice officials and signals a broader crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.
Bet everyone keeps on using their google phones though…
Moaning online aint gonna do shit. Not buying their new phones, not using their old phones, will send the message you want to send. Get an old nokia, or a dumb phone, or two cans and piece of string, or no phone. If you think this is action by google is them cosying up to fascists, then you have a duty to harm that company by not giving them money.
They rely on convenience to trap you. Turn your phones off, dont buy the new ones, get dumb replacements if you need to. Fuck apple and fuck google for cosying up to this admins Gestapo bullshit.
One of the founders of Fairphone is working on a European alternative phone OS called Mobifree, which is also open source. Google free Android also already exists.
It’s just hard to drop the maps especially when car software will only pair with google maps. That’s about the only thing that does not have an easy alternative.
Nothing to do with touching it. If it’s presently in use in any way they will ticket for distracted driving. Some people are even pstd if someone beside the driver is using their phone. The screen provided way to circumvent this issue.
I have too before the screen. Australia and Canada the police will go as far as grab your bag and dig out your phone and call you distracted. I’ve had one spot my phone over in my passengers seat (unused) and attempt to accuse me of being distracted by it.
Buy a map book. Plan your journey in advance. Cars were a thing for decades before map software was a thing, and everyone muddled through. You can too.
I grew up using maps to navigate. I learned land navigation before you were working a full time job. I don’t use Google’s search engine. I don’t buy their new phones. How do I know you’re not the fascist bootlicker, being a rage-baiter online to sow discontent?
Well, you could try not being a fucking moron? I mean, Im telling you all to drop google and apple. How in the blue fuck would that advance my position, if I was a fascist bootlicker?
Look, its real fucking easy. You do something, or you dont. But if youre not going to, then be fucking honest about it. Dont make shit up about how its too hard to read a map, or that you wont be able to make calls or whatever other stupid as fuck excuses have been made. You are all moaning about the gestapo running around, and how these mobile providers are supporting their actions. The action required is clear, turn off your phones. Dont buy new ones. But here we are, fuck know how many replies in, and its nothing but “Oh, I would. But then, how could I find my way around?” Or “oh, I would. But linuxphone isnt ready yet…”. Like old nokias or dumb phones arent a valid option. But what do they not have? Social media bullshit. Which makes the argument they are making pretty fucking clear. They only care about being seen to be standing up to fascism. If they cant get the up arrows, they dont want to do it.
Its the same with Amazon treating its workers like shit. Everybody moaned, but no one stopped ordering because that would inconvenience them too much. A generation of moaners, thats all these people are. With no fucking backbone to actually stand up for what they, say, they believe in.
It was also much more dangerous. I know, I was there.
Somethings today advanced for safety reasons for very good reason. If it comes negotiating conspiracy over safety I think it’s at that moment that it’s fair to say it is unreasonable.
lol If you were there, then you would know it was fine. Im almost 50, this nonsense about the past being a fucking warzone is just that. Stop making shit up to justify you being too much of a pussy to stop using a fucking phone.
Well Someone is so delicate and offended in this thread they started ad hominem attacks and name calling. It sure isn’t me, little snowflake. Maybe you should calm down.
lol yet another fucking idiot who thinks saying stuff makes it true. Just admit youre spineless, and wont tolerate even a moment of inconvenience to fight fascism. Youre just here for the worthless internet points, saying popular thing like a fucking drone.

Their phones don’t make them that much money. Don’t use the search service.
It’s just hard to drop the maps especially when car software will only pair with google maps. That’s about the only thing that does not have an easy alternative.
I’m using organic maps, and a simple phone holder does the trick in the car. No need for the on-screen navigation.
Cops will give a ticket for distracted driving if a phone is used even in navigation. The screen is a safety feature.
What? As long as I program the route before starting and don’t touch my phone until I arrive, nothing happens.
Nothing to do with touching it. If it’s presently in use in any way they will ticket for distracted driving. Some people are even pstd if someone beside the driver is using their phone. The screen provided way to circumvent this issue.
In which country is that? I’ve used my phone for navigation for the last 10 years or so without issues.

That’s unrealistic and a much slower option than other map software.
