If you had paid any attention, you’d know that the point was that on Android it’s way easier to simply not use the Play Store (without compromising your security even), so Google doesn’t have nearly as much control.
It is much less accessible, less supported and can be a security risk. If it was so easy, why didn’t the people in HK simply do that?
Still better than iOS, which is the point of the video.
Using ProtonVPN doesn’t “prevent tracking in general” and that you think it does is showing about how qualified you are on this topic.
You can get a Pixel for less, but do you know what also is iPhone price tagged? iPhones.
There’s a web installation for GrapheneOS not shown in the video that is so easy my grandma might be able to do it given some time.
This is so far from the truth that you might as well say it’s currently maintained by an alien on mars.
TLDR - for the sake of yourself and everyone that might be misled by your misinformed comments, please educate yourself. Everyone has to start somewhere, and admitting you don’t know what you’re talking about is much more respectable than typing bs because you don’t know any better. You can start your journey by actually watching the video while paying attention, or alternatively reading about GrapheneOS on their official website.
