But you don’t mind paying more and having a worse service IRL when you could just buy a cheap Pixel phone with GrapheneOS on the side ?

Think of it like a car key. You wouldn’t have a crusade against car keys right ?

Wait what? Who is paying what? What service is worse? Car keys?? I genuinely, honestly, have no idea what you're talking about.

Some cars don't come with keys any more - you have to use your phone and the cloud.

Which is good, right? One less thing to lose.

Soon the cars are going to drive away on their own, so what's with the keys anyway ?
