My phone is finally getting laid to rest, and I have a new one arriving this afternoon. I already plan to use F-Droid as much as possible, and Aurora Store for stuff I have to install for work that isn't FOSS. Aside from that, does anyone have any tips on things to do to secure/privatize it as much as possible? I'm assuming I won't be able to root it.

Looking back on 2019, one thing I'm happy to see is that #privacy concerns are becoming much more mainstream.
When I gave a talk at LP2017 just three years ago, I began by saying "this is not a tinfoil hat presentation". If I were to give that talk today, I could confidently omit that line, because 2019 has created a far more fucked up narrative than I ever could have.
(On the downside, I haven't been able to keep up with the deluge of privacy related issues over the past year.)In conversation from social.mikegerwitz.com permalink -

"These owners can choose to share some, all, or none of their footage with police; police do not need a warrant in order to request camera footage from residents....when camera owners are "uncooperative or unavailable," officers are instructed to contact Ring and request that the captured video be preserved." #privacy

Many tech companies tout #privacy and security features that coincidentally also increase their own control and your dependence on them.
In this case, the feature protects user location data from competitors but not from Apple:

This opt-in clause is the critical reform we need. As in California, tech companies will lobby to remove it.
"Companies further would have to obtain a person’s permission to collect and share their sensitive data." #privacy

Et tu, DMV?
"The California Department of Motor Vehicles is generating revenue of $50,000,000 a year through selling drivers’ personal information, according to a DMV document obtained by Motherboard." #privacy

@aral Ironically this video site includes googletagmanager (Google Analytics), includes google Fonts and sets cookies without need and without asking for permission (you can only "accept").

Jumping on the @matrix bandwagon, via #Riot. Who wants to chat #privacy, #FOSS and all that fun stuff?

Better to have no #privacy than merely an illusion of it because that illusion causes people to do self-harming and self-incriminating things, even in nations where it's a 'crime' to allege God does not exist In conversation from pleroma.site permalink
