Friends and family won't switch to private messaging apps or phones. Is there a point in avoiding Google Messages app? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

It did that to me also. As soon as i tapped Agree, i saw that it had more permissions enabled.

If I was installing it again, I'd try turning off network access before tapping Agree but I'm not sure if this would work.

edit On GrapheneOS you can use scopes and decide which contacts it has access to.

They all have iPhones and Google Android. Since all my calls and text messages are monitored on their phones, am I causing any additional harm to myself by using Google Messages on GrapheneOS? That way I could at least use RCS messaging.

Thoughts on the Brax 3 phone? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Supposedly, he sells out of his phones but I haven't seen any review or unboxing videos for the Brax 3. I know that you can ask for iodeOS or Ubuntu touch.

What will "Sign In With Google" do? (sh.itjust.works)
 

If I created a Udemy account with my Gmail, then what's the difference between signing in with email and signing in with Google? Thanks in advance.

This article is out of a parody publication before anyone takes every word too seriously.
