If such choice isn&#39;t provided, in many cases users may choose less secure OS options, such as using Lineage OS with unlocked bootloader. So this can be viewed as a matter of harm reduction. 2025-10-26T18:36:15Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9m3y7723qcxqfzhf2e5reweewds8k3v97ahz283df2jc8zwyy2hszyqnx9q7llueg9yrmp0azknd8md379n6zvulsleajc87408lgf700k999ghc In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2fngnjmdhvtv4s670l90kahx3m3xssvgkxt0knrt9n3glq7867xgc5a232'>nevent1q…a232</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It makes sense that default settings must not be less secure then stock OS, but explicitly limiting user freedom by refusing to add user-controlled setting doesn&#39;t make sense, in my opinion. Different people might have different threat models, and for some people who&#39;d like to avoid proprietary software, disabling this new play services signature verification check may be an acceptable tradeoff in order to avoid using proprietary GMS, even if it&#39;s non-privileged. 2025-10-26T18:31:47Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsxsgstjp383lu4prs96v8n6a2rhv7x3kjp7ut607l3j36xrgughmgzyqnx9q7llueg9yrmp0azknd8md379n6zvulsleajc87408lgf700ks5eeth In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqste7z9e8vldte0mxlxsuws4qqmn33gn9gnv9r7a2h60ac934xetqsatf8k9'>nevent1q…f8k9</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>If refusing user choice would break existing workflows, it would be sub-optimal.
