these are the thoughts from an anonymous source on this topic (I happen to largely agree): """ The ONLY way forward is to abandon mobile computing entirely. There is literally no hope of salvaging it, short of buying all of the companies involved and taking control of states. We cannot even produce these devices ourselves, and all of the protocols around them are specifically designed to deny you all autonomy (look into trying to do SMS from a desktop through a local ISP, for example) In the meantime, continuing to use this technology is consent to slavery. GrapheneOS has negative utility because it deceives you into believing that some autonomy can be retained with this platform, which takes energy away from actually viable solutions. The actually viable solution is static IPs, home ownership, and direct p2p networking between PCs using only the IP protocol. """ View quoted note →
