    Great. I’m still disgruntled by them restricting device-trees, AOSP development and app installation in the future.

        Yeah, looks like a coordinated effort. They’re re-aligning other things as well. They also forfeited their pledge not to develop AI for weapons and surveillance. Joined that “age restriction” effort to collect people’s IDs. And I’ve seen a massive crackdown on Youtube, from ramping up advertisements, making it harder to circumvent these, or download videos, to what they pay to creators which has also reportedly changed substantially.

        I guess Android is amongst the more annoying ones, because we all rely on smartphones and the operating system on there.
