        Ok, but the implication of your post is that we shouldn’t give Apple money because they’re a bad corporation. So is Google. Yet we require these products to function in modern society. So, what do you suggest?

          There doesn’t have to be any good option. The world doesn’t work that way. Smartphones exist largely to collect data from people.

              Because Apple people tend to think Apple is privacy focused and somehow less guilty than other brands. That is something particular about Apple’s customers, but not Apple itself. Apple itself is just another corporation doing corporate things.

                Not this guy. I just use Apple because the devices and experience are better for me. I’m under no delusions, nor should anyone else be.

      Custom ROM pixel is the best choice on the market if you actually care to fight the clown corpos…

      Or just do nothing and consoom like a good little boy.

          You have poor understanding how Google makes money.

          They need you using that phone with their spyware, they sell pixels to lock people up in their shiti GPS bullshit. Custom Rom fixes that issue.

          Also, buy a second hand pixel if you really trying to do the full mile to dent the parasite profit.
