@tedstechtips @GrapheneOS I think DNS or an adblock browser plugin is your best best. However, the point of the post is about tracking and privacy more broadly which includes not allowing apps to have certain information in the first place. That's why GOS put effort into sandboxing Google Play, file scope, contacts scope, etc.

@annaleen@wandering.shop congrats!! I have this one in my library, and I've moved it up on my to-read list!

@ralfmaximus@mastodon.social @dangoodin@infosec.exchange Sorry, I answered a question you didn't even ask in my last post. Such a low-level attack would probably mean that you are a person of interest. It's probably the kind of thing where a state sponsored actor would use zero-days to get installed. But also, yes, there are people who are willing to bypass everything or turn off an anti-virus to install cheat software or whatever else they think they're installing.

@ralfmaximus@mastodon.social @dangoodin@infosec.exchange It's also a good thing to have defense in-depth. Considering that all software can be compromised, you want as many layers as possible. You would hope that there is another level of security preventing the motherboard firmware from being compromised if the OS is compromised as well.

@foone@digipres.club reminds me of my favorite song Eating My Computer by elliotly.

@MisuseCase@twit.social @zackwhittaker@mastodon.social @cooperq@infosec.exchange GrapheneOS has some thoughts about it, but I think it partially boils down to the developers trusting Apple infrastructure more than Google's for 'privacy' and 'anonymity'. https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/114789276549546469
