Most likely it will work with a VPN, yes. But having lived in America for so long, I never thought I would expect to have to use a VPN to access a website with content censored by our government.

I thought it looked like CloudFlare. Does that mean the US government is leveraging Cloudflare in order to block whatever they choose, assuming it has that as its underlying architecture?

F-Droid is great, but it’s only for FOSS. So it won’t host content like TikTok on it.

You’re right lol

APKPure

It looks a little sketchy to me, I’m seeing mixed things on reddit about it.

An alternative application you can use to download Google Play apps is the Aurora Store (https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore), but I think it still obtains the files from Google Play.

For some reason I can’t edit my post, however I wanted to add that I attempted to post this to reddit under the /r/Android and /r/google subreddits, but Android is only mod approved posts, and the Google subreddit just straight up removed my post without even informing me.

Isn’t it possible to just move the site under a different domain name, or have mirrored secondary servers in an entirely different location in case the primary one gets taken down?

Does anyone know yet if long COVID is an auto-immune disease? I only assume it is but otherwise don’t know.

That’s what the ‘Lockdown’ feature on Pixel phones does.

Impossible to force a fingerprint or face scan because it asks the phone to only accept passcodes.

The “Phone Barn” market is incoming

I’m probably the odd one out, and I used to be infuriated by the idea that my phone didn’t have a headphone jack, but I got used to not having it.

I only use wireless headphones now, and I have a USB-C adapter I can use in case I do want to use an aux port. Have been tempted to buy some decent “Chi-Fi” wired earphones, I do miss higher quality sound.

I’d bet there’s a CSAM test image dataset with innocuous images that get picked up by the script. Not sure how the system works, but if it’s through hashes then it would be pretty simple to add that to the script.

There has to be a USB-C. Some people will always want wires to transfer data, even if it’s through their “wireless charger”, which is proprietary.

They’re probably creating artificial scarcity to increase the prices elsewhere on account of “supply and demand”. There’s a special place in hell for them.
