Entitled? I never asked anyone to buy me a phone. Go be angry elsewhere. The fuck ๐Ÿ˜‚

A pixel? None of that comes pre-installed and it's one of the only devices that comes with the ability to unlock it and flash a custom ROM day 1.

When it works, it's great. But no matter how much you spend, which brands you go with, how you have it set it, eventually something is going to fuck up, and you'll spend half your day fixing it all.

I mean pixel doesn't, and they're unlockable and rootable from day 1.

How about buying a phone that doesn't come with all that shit pre-installed?

and thiefs will just throw it into a faraday cage to block the signal immediately.

Thiefs just throw phones into faraday cages to block all access immediately, then they fiddle with it at home. You're pretty much screwed either way.

Well, either you glue it, and if you ever need to switch the SIM, you buy a new phone. Or you buy a new phone with eSIM support now.

I guess the only other option is to have a case that's hard to get off to buy you some time?

So I guess it's okay to distribute CP, because you aren't the creator, therefore you're not going to be held responsible.

So in other words, Google wants to be able to confirm the web page you requested is not tempered with, similar to a video game detecting any kind of mods?

Ya, I don't see how that'll work out for them. Even those who don't use ad blockers, many use accessibility plugins like you said.

I mean damn. I probably have at least 5 extensions that modify the page in some way. Adding better contrast, removing buttons I don't use and want to hide..
