📣 Attention all custom ROM users and advocates for digital rights! 📣
Google's Play Integrity is limiting access to certain functionalities and applications for those using custom operating systems. This is a direct attack on the open-source community and a step towards further consolidating Google's monopoly in the mobile ecosystem.
The European Commission is aware of the situation, but has deemed it a low priority: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/PETI-CM-757267_EN.pdf
It's time for us to take action and show Google and the EU how much we care about this issue! 💥
Sign the petition now to stop Google from limiting access to custom ROMs: https://www.change.org/p/stop-google-from-limiting-custom-roms
#StopGoogleMonopoly #CustomROMs #DigitalRights #OpenSource #PlayIntegrity #Google #deGoogle #privacy #right2repair #rightorepair #r2r #EU
Let's unite and fight for our right to use and develop custom operating systems! 💪
