Privacy@lemmy.ml•Can Google read my Signal messages on stock Android?English
1·8 days agoMe personally I don’t have a Pixel but I looked into Graphene and I’m told banking apps don’t work and also tap to pay.
Linux works on pretty much every PC ever and every app can be installed. It would be nice to have that for phones!

2·9 days agoEnd-to-end encrypted messaging protects against eavesdroppers in transit.
But if the ENDS are both compromised… I wish there were more/better custom ROMS out there. Hopefully Linux Phone gets some love.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•does Reddit block my connection because i use a VPN?English
5·26 days agoSometimes yes in my experience, but mostly it works fine. I suspect it’s a game of whack-a-mole with VPN companies constantly rotating IPs.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you have a strong opinion on the death penalty?English
1·1 month agoI know, I’m adding to what you said. I’m saying unfairness is not an “issue” of capital punishment, it’s how it is, always has been, and is impossible to do without unfairness.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you have a strong opinion on the death penalty?English
2·1 month agoWhen you remember that in order to even get the death penalty, you have to be such a horrible person that you’re pretty much no longer human
This is just absolutely not true. Throughout history countless innocent people have been executed not because of the facts, but because they were unable to defend themselves against the accusations. Meanwhile, many wealthy or powerful people have been guilty but never even charged with a crime. In fact, the nature of a crime has almost zero correlation with the sentence.
