This is an update on my privacy setup since my last post. Yeah, I know WhatsApp belongs to Meta and is handing over all my data to the US, Israel, Iran, China, the Vatican, and Mars, but for personal reasons, I can’t ditch it right now. How can I improve my setup?
And it has no LineageOS either?
I’m currently stuck with stock too, but at least with uad-ng, you can remove/freeze the offenders (or root it and also get a firewall).
Careful: Play Store itself can not be removed, only frozen; you’ll get a boot loop otherwise.
And in case of the Xperia 10, i’ve had to replace the stock dialer (phone app) with the fossify one, since it and a few useless sony apps got crazy about missing Play Services.
unfortunately there’s no LineageOS for my Motorola either, I really looked for many privacy-focused operating systems and none of them run on my Motorola
