Is anyone else tired of the internet’s doom spiral over #Google blocking the installation of unsigned APKs on Android? Yes, it’s concerning. I use #GrapheneOS and rely on F-Droid, so I too care about this. But I’m seeing wild takes that PCs will soon have locked bootloaders and #Linux will be outlawed. That’s… a stretch.

The concern is real, but catastrophising helps no one. #FOSS isn’t going away, and panic only fuels paranoia while giving Big Tech ideas. I expect people to push back, I certainly will. But right now it feels like we’re manifesting a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Bring on the open hardware revolution I say.
I'm hoping that @mntmn and @genode one day build a *phone* together. Wouldn't that be awesome 😎
