I hate how apps can detect screenrecording and then stop video playback. Is this my fucking phone or not? Sad that our children are going to be increasingly locked into this dystopian software hellscape, and they won’t even realize there was an alternative at one point in time.

how else for wallet apps, bank apps, etc. to protect the user from malware apps recording what they are displaying?

> there was an alternative at one point in time At one point in time, people participated instead of complaining.

Same with mirroring to TV. Today I was thinking about torrents and why I faded them for so long. But I guess I was also blinded by the convenience of streaming platforms in the early days.
imma make sure my kids know what it was like before. also my bf and i talked about making sure they have a graphene os phone or smth haha
