I know it’s not for everyone, but my Light Phone III arrives soon and tech headlines of late aren’t making me regret my choice.

Wao, how is this going to work if now they are required by law to allow third-party stores in Android? What the fuck?

“ but android is open source! You can do whatever you want with it!”

A 20 year-old lie, and I’m glad to see the android worshipers finally realize it was always a load of shit.

You can complain about iOS all you like, but android is no better. It’s about time people started to realize that.

Surely that means they'll allow more apps onto their own app store with that, right? Right?

I don't know anything about jailbreaking android phones yet, but are there resources for getting into doing this to my current android and taking responsibility for security myself?

Google says that only apps with verified identities will be installable on certified Android devices, which is virtually every Android-based device—if it has Google services on it, it's a certified device.

Any chance you can just remove their shit via adb?
