Are you 12 or something? Also, you just said yourself that its not a privilege. A privilege is being able to do something normal peasants cant. In this case, the normal peasants have more freedom than you

for the non existent support of Fairphone devices.
There is a good reason they dont do that. The Fairphone is a real piece of shit from a security (or even a consumer) standpoint, especially because no single phone from the got more than 2 Android versions, and even then they are just months to Years behind(ert) on security updates. The Grapheneos team has a sctrict set of minimums a phone should provide in order not to mislead users by branding an insecure OS with a name associated with security.
GrapheneOS only used Pixel until now was because they a) didn’t have to reverse engeneer that shit and b) it had a few rare security features.
And now that they have to work a lot more to make their OS work, it is a really stupid idea to demand support for an inferior product which they would rule out by default.
But for now, Ill just keep wondering when the EU will Sue Fairphone into bankruptcy for not even obeying the minimum support period
adb over windows
Adb is availible for Mac and Linux too, so maybe start using your brain (assuming the rare case in which you have one)

Just saying, someone already made linux work via the javascript on a pdf file.
collect your name, social security number, address, or other personal information.
At least where I live there are laws to collect this info. Is it not regulated in Murica?
We secure your account against SIM swaps…with modern cryptography protocols.
This just dosent make ANY sense. Sim swaps are done via social engeneering.
proprietary signaling protection
If they wanted to be private, it would be Open source.
Voicemails can hold sensitive information like 2FA codes.
Since when do people send 2fa codes via voicemail? The fuck? Just use signal.
U.S. Army and worked for Palantir.
Me smell honey
Also, they DO collect your Credit card data. Not they themselves, but Stripe. So Stripe knows every detail about you.
Hbomber already did a good video, tho not only about pragerU but about propaganda like Infowars too
I installed Bottles once. It didnt work a single bit.
also, There is already a way to seperate wine apps. Its called wine prefixes, autogenerated with just about every wine frontend.
Does this function similar to a “Private Space” on newer Android or “Secure Folder” on Samsung?
No. Unlike those, you dont have to unlock the app nd use them, the sandbox is just a normal apk but it dosent allow gservices root access and blocks most telemetry, leaving only the necessary APIs
If you want a total user sandbox, you create another user and install gservices there.
Are there problems with OTP in this environment?
There are like 30 ways to send/generate an OTP.
Its a fucking credit card, you can just file a goddamn charge back.
But if you need to pay for a „Media Flatrate“ anyway, and you have those 5€ a month, why not spend it for a good cause?
(Also PIA and nord cost 12€ a month unless you sign their predatory 2 year contracts [which are even then just like 1€ per month cheaper], so mullvad is just way better in that regard too)
Also features like UDPoTCP let you bypass local network restrictions, and the ability to pay with cash and Crypto is great if you dont want want to/ cant use paypal or a bank account for any reason
Because of fucking course there is
Were talking about Jesusland after all
China has already caught up. They made a better model than US companies ever could, because they are self hostable
Isnt Information supposed to be accessible for everyone, and if not, isnt that the definition of errorism and by extension just Plain old Communism because the leaders dont want us to learn so we can only work in the mine?
Be my guest, uninstall GPServices and see
Never had it installed in the first place.
All of your Points are either already answered by me, ad hominem, or random assumptions without data backing it up.
False.Graphene does not have Gservices installed by default
but it will always be far less aggressive about it than Google
Whataboutism. Browser advertises itself as privacy respecting, yet builds on a non Privacy respecting OS. If they really wanted to protect the user, they would be open source, (at least the methods of protecting the user from tracking) firefox based and availible for linux and Android FOSS, similar to everything else (Firefox, Molly, Signal, etc). My whole Comment was about how they advertise themselves as Private, yet fail to address the most basic privacy concerns, essentially being an oxymoron. This was not about „which OS is less evil“ but „why did they not opt for the not at all evil?“
Android also runs Google play services
False. AOSP does not have Gservices, and has enough forks for hardware (Linaege, Graphene, Calyx, /e/)
Both OS suck big time
See my point about AOSP.
I know the post was about Apple
So you just posted some random comment just because?
and I was pointing out that android is likely worse for privacy
Also false, see my Point about AOSP.
Still, it wouldn’t be in their interest to gather data
My sources say otherwise.. Apple has an interest in collecting your data.
What? You mean Android?
I know this is not really a thing where you come from, but here on lemmy we read the OPs text first before commenting, which also would have answered all your questions, but if you really need it: The Browser is based on Propriatery Apple Software and only runs on it
yep
Like, you want to actually contribute against fingerprinting? Make a repo with documentation on how you want to achieve it and publish a firefox fork as example.
If you want change in the software world, you have to make a blueprint everyone can use or at least get an idea and let them have the freedom of implementing it their own way
In other words: It embraces the Data collection and various security liabilities of these OSs by implying Windows and McOS are viable Operating system for anything other than being spied on.
