Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's attack on ICE-spotting apps.

I realize I'm not entirely free yet, but I sleep better ever since I changed to a non-Google Android ROM. Also because the path to proper mobile Linux feels shorter now.

Anyone still on Google Android: Look into making the change. It's worth it.

And if not, at least start getting your apps from F-droid whenever possible.

    I'd love to make the switch. I was looking into custom roms for my S24U and finally decided I'm okay with tripping Knox, so I'd give it a go... Nope! Samsung has removed the ability to unlock the bootloader in OneUI 8, with no path to downgrade. So I'm stuck with an excellent piece of hardware, running software that collects and sells my data.

    Does "play integrity" work on non Google android? I'm rooted and system wide adblocking, but I still use things like streaming apps.
