android is absolutely watching you.
Unless you use Graphene :)
#GrapheneOS only works with #Google #Pixel. This is proprietary AI hardware with access to microphone, camera, location and internet. We don't know what it does, but theoretically it would be possible to route data past the operating system at hardware level (#M2M profiles in #eSIM).
Sure, it is possible, but that is true for any phone.
That question comes up on a regular basis. Despite a lot of close scrutiny, nobody has ever confirmed that Pixel hardware has any backdoors or connectivity that bypasses the OS.
To find out, you would have to be able to read the encrypted 5G radio traffic. And no one has probably managed that yet.
Not really, there are a lot of tools in the security space to investigate chips and other low level hardware activity. Lots of companies do that for their own employees. Many government departments of multiple countries also do that. Many of the same tools are also available to "opensource" cyber security folks.
Also, they make so much money with regular users that investing on specialized hardware and running the risk of being found just to get the data from a small number of people that root their devices is way too costly compared to the potential profits from that data.
Then we agree that these potential #vulnerabilities exist, they just haven't been proven yet?
That's why #Snowden also removes the microphones and there are products like NitroPhone with optional removed microphones, sensors and cameras.
It is just important to me that people are aware of this and are not lulled into a false sense of #security.
except for the fact that it's completely wrong

Made in Microsoft Word 😂
That explains why they think Linux doesn't actually work that well. Only thing that works better is OpenBSD, but that can't game like Linux.
OpenBSD I would put as far down and to the right on this chart as it gets. Even the OpenBSD devs don't understand the political implications of their apolitical stance: a principled stance on using the BSD license and adgerence to extreme UNIX philosophy are basically complete anarchy.
Linux works perfect.
Linux is Freedom OS
Bitcoin is Freedom Money
Nostr is Freedom of Speech
Nor the "Made in Microsoft Word"!!! 🤣🤣
The last point for Linux isn't true if you're using a System76 laptop with Pop_OS! I'm totally amazed how user friendly it is.
Brilliant. 🤣
Instead of doesn't work well Linux should say, "the real reason everything that actually works happens".
The entire internet's back bone and most of the websites you use run on Linux. Yea you browse with a Mac, a PC or an Android but that site is 95% of the time on a Linux Server. TSPC is.
The "made in Microsoft word" is just 👨🍳😘
