Losing access to Authy leads to another reckoning with Google’s security model.
Wilden offered some hope for a future in which ROMs could vouch for their non-criminal nature to Google
Oh, that rubs me the wrong way! It’s my godd***ed device, I paid for it with my money, and I’ll run whatever I damn well want on it (which is never vanilla Android because I refuse to allow my devices to be ad platforms).
I shouldn’t have to prove anything to anyone let alone have it treated as a “criminal OS” by default.
Google needs to be broken up and both Chrome and Android divested to 3rd party, non-profit companies (as well as being demoted to a minority on both steering committees).
100% agreed.

@downpunxx@fedia.io it would be awesome if you could use the cross post feature in the future so the discussion doesn’t get divided
The author is implying that Authy is the only option for some reason. It’s not, this is a non-issue.
Authy is trash anyway.
