>99% of phones have locked bootloaders>cant sideload apps on ios at all and android is going to kill sideloading soon>system apps are riddled with ads and subscriptions>orwellian data collection even if you turn everything "off"how are companies allowed to get away with this?
>>107676400jews, literally
consumer buy it
idk but there's clearly a market here that isn't being filled properly as all the attempts have been poorly performing subpar devices. a premium open ended slate is a market waiting to be created
>>107676400>how are companies allowed to get away with this?What have you (yes you PERSONALLY) done to stop it?
>>107676448pixels have open bootloaders.they also come with google's data collection/spyware (no huawei or samsung spyware).due to eu laws, you can now completely uninstall default apps like youtube and chromeand pixels have the best roms compatibility. graphene is by far the best android experience. no subscription, no accounts, everything works out of the box
>>107676474but I like to be able to call emergency numbers.pixlels do not guarantee that.
>>107676448everything is fake, and it's so pervasive that the realization is difficult to accept, believe and act upon.
>>107676400>cant sideload apps on ios at allyou can thoughbeit
>>107676566What the fuck, how would that even make sense? You think the pixel cant call 911?
>how are companies allowed to get away with this?because the western tech industry is based in the US and amerimutts are religiously opposed to holding the private sector accountable for anything ever
>>107676400>how are companies allowed to get away with this?people making the laws (and their friends/"sponsors") get access to all of your data so they wouldn't shoot themselves in the foot.
