Try Universal ADB Debloater, you can probably remove most spywares from it. Surely I can’t trust it as much as a FOSS rom, but from my quick network inspection my samsung stock rom with UAD makes pretty much no network connection at all.

probably because of CGNAT or torrent trackers reporting fake stuff. Usually when the first seen and last seen equals it’s the latter, otherwise it’s the former. It’s pretty accurate for me…

it could enable targeted attacks. just use a vpn if you can afford one.

universal adb debloater and rethinkdns

slackware the og linux distro. super stable, sane package management etc. i’ve wanted to try void/arch/gentoo/crux for a pretty long time but still haven’t because this just works perfectly

i use greenify to have nothing running and have notifications disabled always. airplane would prevent me from getting emergency alerts

like forcing snap or amazon search ads back in the day

i’ve heard MATE works well for accessibility, have you tried it?

lemmy, hn, reddit, bsky

run the thing on an isolated container/vm? not much else you can do, your face/audio can’t be hidden anyway

is i2p torrent actually usable? last time i tried i2p itself was extremely slow and there was basically nothing to download, nobody seeding…

yeah, sometimes it vibrates when there’s no notification… which is extremely weird since i have internet access and notification blocked for about any app. Haven’t looked much since it’s not so often tho.

nice script sir, tysm

not sure about win/mac, but for android yes they do keep record of stuff like what apps are being launched and upload/sync to google account. it’s not hidden though… it is(was) literally available on google account history or something (was about 7 years ago)

regarding keystrokes there was a case of a famous chinese keyboard app doing dubious stuff. not sure if i can say it’s on a os level but i’m pretty sure more than a few chinese phones ship with that. https://citizenlab.ca/2023/08/vulnerabilities-in-sogou-keyboard-encryption/
