    Yesterday Google play kindly un-installed KDE connect for my “security” as it is a “dangerous app”

    I promptly re-installed from f-Droid.

      And since I didn’t want to root my old phone, I just disabled all of the Google services via adb.

        But, but, now your phone could be hacked!! 🤣

        (yes, sarcasm, lol)

        The Google bootlickers tell me my phone is at risk since it’s rooted. As if every single Linux, Unix, and Windows box doesn’t have root access for specific users. And Windows is so flawed they require a privilege escalation to perform fairly innocuous functions.

      But all the Google defenders will say “it was for our own good” or the app dev did something that looked suspicious. 🤦‍♂️
