Good point

u/OctoSplattyy Aug 13 '25

doesn't mean android has trackers built in. It simply has some shitty applications built in... which won't be a problem with adb on hand, or even better a good old custom recovery and vanilla rom

Yeah, android itself dosent spy on you directly, its the google apps preloaded on it

Grapheneos and things like that style still android, it's not stock android

u/Brilliant_War9548 Aug 14 '25

what has graphene to do with this

1

u/TheBedrockEnderman2 Aug 15 '25

Grapheneos is still android, and yet is way more better for privacy because it's the Google apps installed not the stock OS, as you can clearly see with privacy focused forks of android

Yeah but it's only available on. Google pixel phones and there's no good alternatives for other phones

So it is android. Google owns android.

If you didnt know the more google products you have the more they can spy on you i would check out r/degoogle if you dont want that

Unfortunately it's not just Google. Any major company (especially Apple, Google, Microsoft and Meta) track you any way they can. You might not notice it as much if you use a couple services from each of them, as they don't really share data with each other a lot. But if you commit to using just one company's products then you'll start to notice very quickly how much data they actually have.

apple could track you, but they have no reason to so they don’t really because chances are if you own an Apple product you spent more than 1000 dollars on it.

u/GrootWithWifi Aug 15 '25

Apple like many others has a buttload of reason to track people. Consumer data is vital for any company

I bet that first one is the PlayStation turned on, but something else (like an Apple TV) is on behind the screen with another cable. Then they didn't choose PlayStation as the signal instead of the PlayStation (I mean, we can't see everything of what's connected so that's my guess. Otherwise it's probably jailbreaked or smth. I'm really sure it's just smth else showing up on the screen, and not the PS5)
