MediaDRM identifier on GrapheneOS (lemmy.world)

Just a heads up for those who are using GrapheneOS. If you log into 2 (google or other) accounts on an installed app even on different profile, the service provider will still be able to link between your 2 accounts using MediaDRM. (Google will still know that both of the 2 accounts have been logged in on the same device)

And be careful with wallpapers, apps can get accent colors from your wallpaper, which are completely unique unless you use the default black one.

thanks a lot, didn't know that, is there any way to block it?

No, though I imagine Graphème could implement one (but it would break Material You)
