You should absolutely use GrapheneOS, but why would this optional offline feature sway you to it?

They calls are not recorded, are they? They are transcribed live.

They could also spy on you without providing this feature at all. I get not trusting Google, and you shouldn’t be using a Google Pixel in that case. But in the event that you are using a Google Pixel, this optional feature is only a positive. If Pixels spy on you, then they are doing it with this or without it.

The ads don’t cover anything though, the video continues where it stopped before the ads.

I have no idea. Guess people like getting thumbs ups and comments.

I saw a top comment on a music video on YouTube with “Anyone watching on specifically today’s date”. Tons of engagement because of course everyone is watching today.

Dude just had a script setup to edit the comment every day, so for years it always asked about today’s date.

Says “up to”. It will probably come with 2TB, but they are happy to put in more if you want to pay for extra. But 40TB is when they start to refuse your unreasonable requests.

This link proves how robust the security research is and how quickly bugs like that are patched.

While these bugs happen, they are fixed very quickly, and wouldn’t be used by any marketing agency. Just keep your phone updated.

Comments like this try to make you give up on privacy by making it look like all is lost from the get to.

They are lying, don’t believe them, there is a lot you can do to protect your privacy.

That helps with other dangers, but in this case all you need to do is not give “Pool 3D” access to the microphone, no rooting required.

Yeah, and this one was.

The link you posted supports that it’s AI

We will never know, because this comic was produced by AI.

One could think so, but no cybersecurity experts share such opinion to my knowledge.

But your words confuse me. Either it’s not true at all or it happens.

The idea is pretty simple, so it would be surprising if it wasn’t happening at all. But there is a huge difference between “there probably exist some examples that do that” and a sweeping statement about all of them in general.

Why suspicious? I have genuinely never read a news story about a virus sending different versions of itself to different OSs. I’m sure it happens, but it doesn’t seem common at all, and you are claiming it very matter-of-factly so I am interested to know more.

Do you have any data to back up that claim? I don’t think that’s true at all, it would be very rare.
