    Hi google, can you approve our phone that basically cuts your apps out and offers privacy from your mass spying operation please? Such a weird point.

      I did acknowledge what you said by saying Google doesn’t want Graphene not including GMS stuff and won’t whitelist GrapheneOS, despite Graphene’s extra security measures. But this doesn’t change the fact that Google could…but won’t.

        When I got a degoogled phone, I’d already decided I do not trust Google with my data and I want to be far away from them. With that decision came the decision that I don’t consider them an authority I rely on, and don’t want their opinion on what is good and what isn’t. If people aren’t ready to degoogle, that is fine, but to ask google if it’s cool to degoogle is a an area where maybe folk aren’t ready to degoogle.
