    Not everyone even knows how to use custom ROMs, tech workers may have a huge presence online but we’re a tiny minority irl.

    Anyway, good, go build it. Saying one small mistake makes a company terrible privacy isn’t doing a whole lot for your credibility though, so I recommend you spend more time building than talking about it.

      one small mistake

      ok this is not “one small mistake” this is a systemic failure

      They designed a security feature without considering security

      They kept this feature without encryption for years

      It is either a bafflingly huge mistake or they intentionally made spyware,

      Ill remind you of hanlons razor and let you make your own decision:

      dont attribute to malice that which is sufficiently explained by stupidity
