              It’s not made by a US company. Meaning there is no insensives to add us gov backdoors or something for military or for companies like palantir.
              Google is an ad company. They have insensitives to collect all the data on us.

                  I’m. I’m going to disagree. All the antihuman inventions like AI and palanter recently seems to be coming from domestic geniuses

                    and china has almost all messaging through government controlled app wechat, qr payments everywhere, active tracking for social credit score, and blocked internet traffic for specific websites. they are definitely big on surveillance…

                    if anything they have more incentive to add backdoors to phones going overseas, look at what happened with huawei

      That still drives sales and demand for future manufactured Pixels… Google thanks you for your patronage.

          Agreed! The shocking part for me is how few folks are forgetting the most basic tenets of high school econ, supply and demand.

          They’re aren’t 8 billion used pixels to go around, and if there were… GOOGLE WOULD BUILD MORE. It’s an ineffective boycott.

          This joining gets me a lot of downvotes on Reddit, but I’m telling you, GOS acolytes are the cross-fitters of the degoogling world.
