I’ll wait until EU declares Android phones must offer the option of stock AOSP, custom ROM, and OEM AOSP.

Until then, I’m staying the fuck away from Chinese phone brands.

Why would EU ever do that?

The same reason they’re currently going after big corpo for bundling in random shit in OS. Microsoft recently had to remove or make removable a lot of their bloat on Windows. Google recently had to allow search engine selection at first install.

So antitrust legislation.

To further the point: in Chinese brands, this is a NOTORIOUS issue, because they do everything in their power to try stop the user from:

  1. Uninstalling their bloat
  2. Installing any of their competition’s products
  3. Not having a shit ton of hidden trackers, which imo amounts to Spyware, even if you opt out of everything you can.

I know Chinese phone brands sell for low prices because they’re selling Spyware, that dualpurpose as phones.

And if everything was above board, I’d have no issue with that.

Want to fill your “phone” with ads so it pays your loss back in time? Go ahead.

Just let the user disable ALL of it if they so choose.
