@paoloredaelli@mastodon.uno I'm not sure I follow the reasoning behind EU wanting Play Integrity being a mandatory requirement for non Apple devices. Same way EU forced Apple to open their walled garden.
The only nuance thing here is, a Google Certified device means that they are running Google's proprietary blobs. So really, the course of action is, install alternative OS/use alternative OS and instead tell the devs of apps with Play Integrity checks that there are alternatives to check a device is not compromised - because that is what it should be about. Force Google to provide a different verification path that allows alternative ROMs/OS to be seen as safe.

@denzilferreira@techhub.social I agree the whole line. But I'm also pessimistic and I won't be surprised discovering that EU politicians have been "financially facilitated" to endorse #Google way of controlling society. And those not oiled may be just fool enough to think that they can "control the dragon" and use Google infrastructures themselves to control the population

@denzilferreira@techhub.social How is Apple wallen garden opened? They had (and still has) developer verification - same thing that Google is trying to introduce just now :blobcatumm: @paoloredaelli@mastodon.uno
