Last time I checked, it was broken for years already. It’s been a while though. edit: Confirmed: https://xdaforums.com/t/module-play-integrity-fix-safetynet-fix.4607985/ Only basic/device attestation is working.

As far as I’m aware, there are no work-arounds that allow for circumventing the Play Integrity API. Probably because you cannot avoid the involvement of a Google backend API that is accessed by the app’s backend. It works like this: Play Services hands a token to the app, the app sends it to the app backend, and then the app backend lets a Google backend verify the token, which results in a verdict. You cannot manipulate the token.

More specifically, Play Integrity API will fail on the Play Service integrity check. If I recall correctly, this is why Google Pay won’t work on GrapheneOS.

Some banks require the app to be used as second factor to log into their website.

Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: EA on-line activation and Origin client software installation and background use required

Requires 3rd-Party Account: EA Account (Supports Linking to Steam Account)

Seems like another cursed EA game with built-in spyware.

My Steelseries Prime Wireless only has basic functionality working. I could run the software via Wine or VM (don’t remember) but it didn’t remember the settings after a power cycle of the mouse or the PC (also don’t remember).

That’s incorrect. At least as a generalization. For example: In The Netherlands, you do not own the airspace above your property. The EU laws for drones do state that you can’t just film people without permission, though. Operators of camera drones also need to register and get an operator id.

The scanning is done on your device. You could theoretically only overload the CSAM reporting feature if such a thing will exist.

If a messaging service is non-compliant, the government could theoretically take action with court orders against domain owners, server owners or pursue anyone hosting a node in case of a distributed setup. In a worse case scenario, they might instruct ISPs via court orders to block these services (e.g. The Pirate Bay in some countries)

It’s literally in the article: They want to use client-side scanning. The client already has the data decrypted. This is much like what Apple wanted to introduce with CSAM scanning a while back. It’s a backdoor in each client and it’s a matter of time until it will be abused by malicious entities.

Regarding gaslighting: See Apple’s response on the CSAM backdoor shit show. All the critics were wrong, including the various advocacy groups.

In the early days they would quietly take all your contact info on your phone and send emails in your name that made it seem like you were reaching out to those contacts. Something like “(your name) is trying to reach you on LinkedIn”.

Back then, Android didn’t have app permissions like it does now where you have to ask the user explicit permission for access to certain data. It would only show up on the very first app install and only if you’d be looking for that.

I cancelled my account back then and never looked back.

why doesnt GNOME have a maximize button

Probably because you can double-click the window ‘bar’ to achieve the same.

I found kdenlive terrible. DaVinci Resolve is much better, but it’s closed source and has some limitations in terms of hardware encoding support (nvidia only).

Great job! Is there a way to donate to the project?

Internal dash cam video and/or audio.

It’s probably an SSD for a Fusion Drive setup: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_Drive

It seems to check out for iMac in 2019.

Besides the other mentioned reasons: exposure through the app store can be a motivator too.

It’s likely mostly Google and a bit of Amazon: Casting support requires Google Play Services installed on the device. Google Play Services is only allowed to be used (as in: allowed by Google) if the Android device also comes with many other Google apps. Amazon probably doesn’t want their device to become a Google-centric device. That’s likely the reason.
