I’m not disagreeing with you but whose phone do you plan on buying next? Pichai + Brin also bribed trump (they were at the inauguration alongside Tim Apple and others)

That gold trophy though really rubbed me the wrong way. And Ihate apple for that. And yes I know they all donated for ballroom paid for inauguration. They're all shit but Apple is the shitiest IMO.

Only issue is gapps there are lots of phones not made by Americans.

I don’t know yet. I’ll get a new phone when this one dies. The point is that I used to buy iPhones as default, and that is no longer the case. I wonder how many customers they lost like me - theoretically I could have been a life long customer.

don't forget to not buy new. buy a used device whenever possible, unless you specifically want to support a particular company

Was going to say this. Second hand phones don't give money to corporations (except via usage, of course).
