In my not so expert opinion, this shit be bad yo.
I do not want to have to ID myself online or ID my devices. Gonna have to switch to a bootloaded grapheneOS fair phone or chinese company for my next device if I want the same level of privacy as the "normie" phone setups from like 10 years ago.
What's frustrating is that even normies get it, and don't actually want this shit, but it's just being shoved down our thoughts anyhow.
Not sure how much better Chinese companies are. Everything owned by alibaba for the main land requires id verification now since a while ago. It seems to be common to make sure only main land users use it, Baidhu does it too. So I'm not sure if they'd bother with people outside of the mainland, but doesn't really seem like a sure bet to me
