You aren’t going to keep Android open. Respond by shoring up Linux phones.
Most of the world can't afford to buy one specific android and hope not to brick it. Most people can't afford a google pixel and if they can, aren't going to risk it.
And what happens when google cuts off third party tools like MicroG. I need WhatsApp for almost everything from talking to family and friends to Work. Most of the world does, and the same is true for Facebook.
And they shouldn't. By buying Pixels you are supporting Google, the same company that is destroying Android freedom.
Today's best alternatives are phones that come preloaded with custom ROMs (Brax3, Fairphone, Murena, Iodé, and so on), or if you're feeling more adventurous, a Linux phone (I have heard good things about FuriLabs FLX1).
Which is why you stop using Android and use Linux phones instead.
Most Linux phones are android phones that have a Linux rom available to them, hence why they said most people wouldn't risk what they spent a lot of money on
I didn’t say put a Linux rom on an android phone. I said use a Linux phone.
I don't want to buy a new phone
Google doesn't give a shit about what you want. It only understands two things: credible legal threats and not giving them your money.
I don't want to, but I will if I have to
Awww
Not only would that solve this little problem, it would reduce Google's power and remove one's data from the claws of US authorities (were the Patriot and Cloud acts let them mass track everybody using a Google product).
Just make sure you chose a non-US Linux phone.
or making a cydia-style open source repository style app store that's accessible through custom firmware.
This will not work either. Stop using Android.
