Riker's gotta get his leg over.

Surely this is a state actor's assault against the first amendment? The police are quelling the voice of the people.

Pure wild speculation if I'm honest, however I'd be more surprised if I was completely wrong. It's always seemed sketchy the way Google have basically said "Use our phone, it's more secure!" with their Nexus and Pixel phones - this was long after the time Google stopped not being evil. At best, the security problems have simply changed manufacturer. Also, Google have a history of undermining development of circumvention, eg hiring the developer of MicroG and forcing him to stop development as a term in his contract.

The diva part is widely known, GrapheneOS developers don't play nice with the rest of the custom development community. So, while I can't substantiate any actual deal between them and Google, it's the perfect recipe.

I swear I had them downloaded, then my app deleted them. Either that or they just never downloaded.

Gonna have another hunt, I want me an mp3.

Even worse still: many online banking services require you to connect to Google, basically through the back end captcha system. You never have to solve the puzzle or click on traffic lights, but they do still associate you and your web browser with having an account with that bank.

However also, you can often use root with banking apps, you just have to set it up right. Configure Magisk to operate in the Zygisk domain with a deny list, and add the apps to that.

Don't forget: Indian tech entrepreneur Rajat Khare is scrubbing the internet of any mention of his name or even anything critical about him, like how he runs a hack for hire business that works for the worst of them, eg Qatar spying on FIFA when they were bidding for the World Cup.

Behind the Bastards tried to do a two part episode on it, but it's pretty hard to find now.

The people striking aren't the unemployed rednecks posing with shotguns in their trucks.

He also sold his vaccine cards to people who weren't vaccinated.

Less than 100 years ago. I only tried one search though and found a story about a guy who killed a cop and a utility worker, then gave up.

Edit: Blair mountain was 1921, so that was just over 100 years ago, but I expect there have been others since.

That workers in the US have a lot more reason to be wary about striking. Hell, just look at the way protestors are being treated in Georgia over Cop City.

They should still do it, but also it's more risky than in Europe.
