Who owns your shiny new #Pixel 9 #phone? You can’t say no to #Google’s #surveillance

Source: https://cybernews.com/security/google-pixel-9-phone-beams-data-and-awaits-commands/

Every 15 minutes, #GooglePixel 9 Pro XL sends a data packet to Google. The device shares #location, email address, phone number, #network status, and other #telemetry. Even more concerning, the phone periodically attempts to download and run new code, potentially opening up #security risks...

Don't be a data cow 🐮 on Google's server farm 👎

LineageOS 18.1 (Android 11) is now available for the original Google Pixel and Pixel XL

After releasing LineageOS 18.1 based on Android 11 for the Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite, Moto G100, and Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (LTE) late last month, the LineageOS team has added three more devices to the LineageOS 18.1 build roster. Official builds of LinageOS 18.1 based on Android 11 are now available for the original Google Pixel, Pixel XL, and the Redmi Note 8/Redmi Note 8T.

I also see on the site that the newer Pixel 2 and upwards phones, are also supported (which no longer get updates from Google). Just note this is a custom ROM, which should just work fine, but the initial installation requires some extra steps, and you lose your existing data. If the Pixel was an iPhone, it would still be getting updates…
