Thanks for providing links but I don’t trust the ny post.

Here’s a story where people working for Apple got access to audio recorded during seemingly unwanted times like during sex.

But I imagine these people were enabling voice recording in the first place. I trust my phone not to record if I disable those features (though sometimes they make this difficult).

I think Apple is generally better about this stuff then other companies though? Since they actually went to court to protect e2e encryption.

Lastly, if youre someone of interest to powerfull people, there are otherways they can use your phone against you like with pegasus:

cool. I’ve been thinking about this too. how do you do this? does yt host the rss feeds? or do you have to like scrape them?

what are the fairphone and Jolla phones lacking?

have you needed to use microG for any apps? is it a sufficient replacement for google play?
