Re:Google adds 24-hour wait and mandatory reboot to Android ... by riedel on Saturday March 21, 2026 @03:40AM (#47464889)
Actually this OP seems to be the old announcement from 2025 with no additional news as far as I saw. If implemented like this, it will be horror.

The baseline for a usable solution for me is still that I can keep my banking apps and that I am able to use fdroid trusted builds from source, can install builds from other open source CI builds, install builds from my students I know personally without needing them to verify with a foreign entity and publishing their personal data.

Practically the law will require me to buy another 'developer phone' the for work. Actually allowing more profiles like the work or hidden profile would allow users to at least chose per profile and could at least put their banking apps into a sandbox where they work (requirement would be that Google wallet can also run from such a profile) . I actually would be very happy to run the main profile without any Google play services like Graphene does: I guess a lot of data protection risks would be solved by this.
