There's a certain "people's republic" where they introduced a new government signature on all android apps. For "safety", as they "check" the apps for you 😉
For now it can be bypassed after three pages of scary warnings but in the future?
Maybe it could be a big reason of why they're liking harmony os that much, you don't need to manually approve android apps if android apps are completely unsupported
Why have we given juggalos so much power?
Because there’s magic everywhere in this bitch
It was always going to end this way.
It must run on magnets.
Well you bought a Chinese phone. The Chinese government likes to restrict what its people see like all authoritarian governments.
Get something with stock Android or iOS. Better yet, go foss droid
pixel with a custom ROM for OG freedom lovers!
I feel your pain. Went to have a wank last night before bed and went to pornhub and my state government wants to verify age via ID card. So pornhub just said fuck that shit and my ip address is blocked from visiting the lovely site. Am sad
VPN?
Or just use tor. Be careful when searching nsfw stuff mind you.
So, have you bitched at your state rep about it yet?
Oh you though state bitch works for you? You got it backwards.
State Rep is corpo bitch. Better take the complain to porn hub, they would then order state bitch to fix it.
Like they'd listen. I'm in Oklahoma, liberals don't have a voice here.
Xnxx and xvideos don't give a shit where you live friend.
At least your country is down with the clown.
Fucking phones, how do they work?
Whoop Whoop
Why did you even buy a phone meant for the Chinese market in the first place?
Could live in China.
Presumably because it's much cheaper.
There are reasons why it's cheaper, and none of them improve your life.
There are plent of cheap chinese phones supported by lineage os tho.
Where do you live that you are being governed by the Insane Clown Posse?
Suburban Michigan
Juggalopolis.
People's Republic of the Clown.
Don't buy Xiaomi.
I used MIUI.EU on Xiaomi phones for some years and it was pretty great (and inexpensive). But I wouldn't suggest it in the USA because the carriers here don't always play nice with them.
"This app hasn't been checked for third party spyware along with our official trusted spyware. Proceed with caution."
I've got your ICP registration info right here baby WOOP WOOP
Have you tried yelling " WHOOP WHOOP" at it?
China, what a bastion of freedom.
There's like 5 governments doing full dragnet surveillance in the world, wonder if one can send an interesting enough dickpic to warrant a UNSC joint session
Yeaah.. im starting to really dislike phones tbh.. i might start sticking to my laptop from now on, infinitely less restrictive
That's a perfectly acceptable plan, were it not that a laptop is much less handy. It's cumbersome to use a laptop while standing in a crowded bus, for instance, that's what a phone is good for.
Fucking Smart Phones, how do they work?
That's only on their local android varieties though. That looks like a Xiaomi/Redmi phone? In that case head over to xiaomi.eu, download the EU version of the ROM, and flash it following the instructions there, it's very straightforward.
With Oppo and OnePlus phones it's equally simple, there are a ton of how-to's over on https://forum.xda-developers.com/ for all models. If you stay in China, best get their Indian ROMs, the EU ones have some mobile bands inactive that are not in use there, but are in Asia.
For other phone manufacturers, it's anywhere between trivial and impossible (Huawei for example). Xda-dev is your best source of info usually.
ICP?
That's right; the Insane Clown Posse demands you register your apps with them for your saftey.
I was unaware that Insane Clown Posse was approving Android apps nowadays.
Can you install a jailbreak OS, or is that not allowed for “safety”?
In this specific case can do it but the bootloader unlock request must come from a Chinese ip address, from a verified Chinese number (get otp code via SMS) and wait like one month
And I bet this process is going to add you to some list of people to keep an eye on.
