Google says it’s no different than checking IDs at the airport.

        Yes. Would be a protest buy.
        I would spend more money and get Chinese os to just not fund Google.

        The way I see it this is the last drop in the bucket for android openness anyways.

          Fair enough- at least you’re not under any illusions that they’re less restrictive and scummy.

      Consider a Volla Phone with UBPorts.

      UBPorts can also be installed on Fairphone.
