Im just waiting for somebody to make a plan for resistance. So far the best I have seen is going to the doorsteps of google to cry and beg them to stop.

thats not my cup of tea

    But I think the real reason nobody is doing this is the paradigm of reasonability.

    Nobody want to step their foot down, because that's not reasonable. We are supposed to make it work like the wife exposed to domestic violence.

    But we need to stop being reasonable and start being assertive.

    But for real, I think GrapheneOS could take this stand if they've got the balls.

    GrapheneOS uses Google hardware and depends on Google publishing the Device Tree Blob to create their software over.

    By branching with Motorola, it gives them more viability for when Google decide they won't publish the DTB anymore (it will happen).

    But GrapheneOS is still dependant on Motorola not being dicks.
