Rename the ISOs to BMP images and say they’re art instead.

This US didn’t order them to do this. The Swiss court did.

It’s the other way around. Google specifically blocks Goodlgle Pay being used on GrapheneOS. I believe there’s another contactless payment app called Curve or something that works on GrapheneOS. Requires Google Play Services installed though.

No requirement to have your legal name in Signal. Though, I do wish it was possible to set a different name for group chats though. Happy to use my real name with friends and family, but would prefer an alias for group chats.

Yes, they don’t work without Google Play Services. Google didn’t implement passkeys in Android, only their own services.

I’ve been using it for several months mostly due to it’s UnifiedPush notifications support and been really happy with it.

I’ve got a few old PCI cards around somewhere. I should pull one of them out and give them a try at this.

Probably don’t need to scrape it. Just query WikiData for it

The page says it captures game audio only by default. But you can switch it to all audio if UPI want to capture something like external voice chat.

It’s not that it’s closed, it’s more that none of the exiting email protocols support a server which can’t read your email (as it’s all encrypted). They do offer Proton Bridge which you can run locally which will handle all the decryption and local mail clients can talk to that as the would any other mail server.

I don’t know off hand if it supports calendar syncing though.

Even if it doesn’t look as good, it’ll hopefully include some better APIs that extensions can utilise to improve their experience. E.g. hide the native tabs.

As I understand it (from my non-legal casual read of the new coverage). Having a monopoly isn’t illegal, abusing it is. For Google they found that google was secretly paying companies to not put their apps on other stores. That was what they got the judgement against them. They didn’t find anything like that for Apple.

Typically end to end encryption includes digital signing of the message so you can verify who the sender was.

Yeah, end to end encryption means its not possible for someone to intercept the message between person A and person B. Nothing stops person B then forwarding the message to person C to report it.

Software cracks leaving a calling card isn’t unheard of. Companies before have been caught out before with names of cracking groups showing up in their files.

Edit: found the article I was thinking of. Turns out it was Microsoft themselves!

This was the tool I used. It worked great for me.

Signal doesn’t encrypt notifications from what I understand. It uses Google/Apples notification system like everything else. But the notification only says “Hey, wake up!”. Then the Signal app goes and retrieves the message from Signal’s servers. That retrieval will be encrypted, but it’s outside the push notification system at the point.

Set Immich up a couple weeks ago and I’m surprised how good it is. Their docs included a simple cli tool to bulk import all my Google photos. Mobile app is working great. I’m really impressed with the search too.
