@Mer__edith@mastodon.world Google services already does a lot to increase battery drain in the background so I'd consider not having it running all the time a decent trade for security over convenience.

@cienmilojos@infosec.exchange @Mer__edith@mastodon.world The logic behind its existence is sound. You do not want 30 background services in constant contact with 30 different servers because it kills the battery. With Google services there is only one service in contact with one server, but that only works if everyone sends their notifications to the same server. Why they don't just offer end to end encryption is beyond me though.
