(translated) Everyone has a phone. Whether it's an iPhone, where you can't install a better YouTube Music client without ads, or an Android, where you have pre-installed apps from three different manufacturers plus ads for new phones popping up as notifications. Anyone who reads my articles regularly knows what I'm talking about. Today, after a very long time, we're going to review a phone from Google, on which I installed GrapheneOS.

Sweden,Lituania,Denmark, Norway, Poland, that I know of, off the top of my head. And for the dystopian feeling you have, consider that its required for banking, tax filing and things where you would otherwise have to prove your identity with a government issued ID or passport. So no more dystopian than being required to show Id when taking out a house loan.

    You can add Portugal, Spain and (I think) Estonia to that list. But really the tendency will be for more countries to adopt this technology. Whether we like it or not the degoogling/PrivSec community is really niche and most people prefer to use standard phones, and there these apps work perfectly.
