Wow.

So you can sleep well knowing that soon your data is going to be used for training AI that Mills children in Gaza?

You really are that puddled in the head you need to bring in external politics to someone sharing that their device that they bought, without someone telling them to use third party software instead, getting an update early?

It's called projection and it smells worse than your mum's knickers.

Thanks for calling them out on my behalf. I appreciate it. I'm only moderately tech savvy. Like this is my first flagship phone ever and I'm 56 but I've really enjoyed it. Anyway I have no fucking idea what that guy is talking about. Yet I smell the distinctive scent of a douche

Call it astroturfing, call it naivety, call it coercive behaviour or whatever.

But you bought your phone which has the latest upstream release of updates from the OEM. People then coming in and telling you that Google is bad is fucking ironic to me.

I get it; I self host a fair amount of things locally these days but not solely because of politics and more, frugality? But chiding others for sharing what is a simple post of "hey guys, I got this shit early" is bollocks and I'll call each and every time.

Shakes head.
