Turns out Mozilla no longer offer a Location service.

Interesting idea

Good solution

With weed its not straight forward, because many diff strains produce diff outcomes, some can make ur ADHD worse, others better. But buying it on the street will not give reproducible results.

Shou I get your point but I agree with beefbot Im sure you havnt tried everything…

When you know something doesnt work, the benefit is that you know to try somthing else.

Have you tried Religiously Swimming 5 times a week, combined with light-weight excersize at the gym? Add in solid 8 hours of sleep and noFap… For me its a huge boost in Mood and ADHD…

If not that what about Magic Mushrooms, LSD, Amphetamines?

You were given the gift of life and time for free… So long as you have it you can spend it to correct your problems.

For those interested in the answer, I quote an answer.

Push notifications still go through Google’s servers just like with Play Services

Yes; that’s unavoidable if you want to use applications that make use of them, as they send the notifications to Google server-side, you can’t just tell them to do it differently. If you want push notifications that don’t go through Google, you can use UnifiedPush, but then the apps must explicitly support it (it’s the case for a few apps on F-Droid).

uses proprietary Google Binaries for some of its components such as DroidGuard

Only for DroidGuard, which isn’t downloaded at all if you don’t enable SafetyNet. Your apps will also still include Google binaries of course.

Choosing a network location like Mozilla to use with microG provides little to no privacy benefit over Google because you are still submitting the same data and trusting them to not profile you.

That’s fairly subjective. You could trust Mozilla more than Google (but in any case Mozilla doesn’t provide its network location service any longer, you will have to use something like BeaconDB instead, and of course the same how’s for them), and you could still prefer for your location-related data to go to whoever they go without all the identifiers attached that Google gets, since microG doesn’t really tell them who you are aside from the unavoidable IP address.

Finally, at least back in UnifiedNLP times, you could use location providers that weren’t actually “network” but let you download offline databases of cells instead. Unofrtunately, that sort of option is much more limited in current versions of microG.

Can you no longer just register signal with a pay as you go number?

I dont recall needing credit cards etc to register

I dont use that feature itself and never have done, but isnt it pre-installed on almost all android devices? So i guess thats likely running in the background

Whilst I agree that IP search history is used, this isnt relevant here. We are merely talking via speech within the Signal phone app, then when ending the call and loading a youtube video, the recommended carousel will recommend multiple videos pertaining to things ONLY discussed in the call (never searched)

More often than not its trivial things… IE mentioning to a friend the other day that I found a special security screw on the floor outside my house… After ending the call and loading a youtube song, My recommended feed shows numerous videos on special types of security screws… Something I havnt searched in over 3 years. Despite never logging into a google service in years, and good internet hygiene

Another point : The recommended feed on matters discussed during the call dont persist for too long - IE the videos on security screws will be gone within a day, its blatantly obvious tbh.

The instances I refer are too niche to be “coincidences”, more likely Google Violating their own sandboxing rules

Also, I dont have a Wifi Router in my house.

This was/is the metric used to learn google is violating the Signal App Sandbox… Not Penis el… but general daily stuff such as mentioning my curtain rail breaking in a Signal Conversation, Then after loading youtube, getting videos about curtains and the likes…

using normal stock android samsung phone, i believe its google whos violating, thats why im gonna deGoogle my device soon

Its primarily google services that reveal they are spying, via there recommended suggestions.

we dont.

We get recommendations based on what we mentioned during a call, which in some instances, wasnt searched beforehand.

I dont use the youtube app, i use firefox or brave browser, and neve rlogged into youtube.

What does my keyboard have anything to do with speaking via signal phonecall?

I should have mentioned, I dont login to any site like youtube, my browser deletes cookies on closing

Is there a reason nobody mentions PostmarketOS?

Checking phonearena.com now, doesnt seem to have a field with ROM compatibility. Is it hidden?

TBH, im not far off reverting back to carrier pigeons.

Sorry but I don’t believe that. Sounds like a marketing pitch to attract a specific user. Just how EncroChat was marketed to certain people, once enough were on board, they flipped the script and caught all users xD.

Who announced the FBI couldnt backdoor GrapheneOS? Was it themselves? lol
