For example, how do I know that the Samsung calendar app is any better than the g calendar app? Is the only way to go full open source (I’d prefer this, yes).
Also, should we stop using things like the default photo gallery? I have a feeling they steal data from that as well.
I know this is more phone related but I don’t have this issue on my pc since I mostly use linux and open source software.
I’m in the US, and unfortunately, there is an escalating data threat with the latest Supreme Court Ruling that will allow uncleared parties (or poorly cleared parties) to access our government personal data. When combined with the broligarchy data, the aggregate of those becomes extremely dangerous to the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of people. Life is short, but we’re in an emergency crisis, in my opinion. Data protection is a civic duty at this point. The carelessness could very well create a caste system here.
