Google promises verification will make Android safer, but at what cost?

      Oh, no, this will be pushed to devices. Ever seen the “your device has new features”?

      also remove com.wssyncmldm to forcibly prevent your phone from updating

      CAREFUL: when you reset, android updates itself to the newest version.

      This won’t stop anything

      I still use a phone that hasn’t received ota security or play security updates in 4 years.

      Yet, they still installed - without notice or consent - safety core (to rescue me from naughty text messages) to scan my images.

      Funny how they can rapeload apps onto my devices without my consent that work on 3 generations old hardware/os but they can’t update the security and they want everyone else to register to be able to provide foss apps to people for free.
