So I already have apps downloaded from f-droid including encrypted folder. What happens to this from September. Do i get to keep them?

If i do get to keep them are there any apps I should download while I still can?

Also if f droid is going to stop working but I already have it what does that mean? Are google going to outright takeover my phone like some IT department in a big company and delete and install everything they want on there?

    Once this rolls out, the apps stop working. Google have said there'll be a process you can go through to allow other apps on your phone, but it doesn't seem to be available yet. Presumably you'll need to go through this if you want to use f-droid after the change too.

    Man this is all horseshit of the highest degree.

    Fuck the internet changed so much from when i was a kid. I was some fucking catholic school boy on the internet anonymously having debates and learning things I couldn't have access to at home or in school. I seen the wonders of the internet and the huge potential enlightenment and community it could bring now we have this shit.

    We all going to get arrested in 2030 for having Linux and a VPN aren't we?

    Wish EU kept Nokia going, and invested in Linux too I guess. I'd rather get shafted by the Fins than the Americans
