There’s a certain “people’s republic” where they introduced a new government signature on all android apps. For “safety”, as they “check” the apps for you 😉
For now it can be bypassed after three pages of scary warnings but in the future?
Maybe it could be a big reason of why they’re liking harmony os that much, you don’t need to manually approve android apps if android apps are completely unsupported
Well you bought a Chinese phone. The Chinese government likes to restrict what its people see like all authoritarian governments.
Get something with stock Android or iOS. Better yet, go foss droid
pixel with a custom ROM for OG freedom lovers!
Why did you even buy a phone meant for the Chinese market in the first place?
Presumably because it’s much cheaper.
There are reasons why it’s cheaper, and none of them improve your life.
“This app hasn’t been checked for third party spyware along with our official trusted spyware. Proceed with caution.”
China, what a bastion of freedom.
There’s like 5 governments doing full dragnet surveillance in the world, wonder if one can send an interesting enough dickpic to warrant a UNSC joint session
Can you install a jailbreak OS, or is that not allowed for “safety”?
In this specific case can do it but the bootloader unlock request must come from a Chinese ip address, from a verified Chinese number (get otp code via SMS) and wait like one month
Since when do they have those rules? A year ago I unlocked my Xiaomi phone. Outside China. Did not have a Chinese phone number. It took less than an hour.
And I bet this process is going to add you to some list of people to keep an eye on.
ICP?
That’s right; the Insane Clown Posse demands you register your apps with them for your saftey.
a permit issued by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) to permit China-based websites to operate in China
sheepooh needs to sign off on the software you run… pathetic.
Oh it is just part of Chinese censorship
I was unaware that Insane Clown Posse was approving Android apps nowadays.
Incredible Communist Party
Yeah you know me
It sucks!
FAFO… bought the chinaman phone, got fucked by the chinaman
well that’s an easy block
thank you ;)
