The super privacy-focused third-party ROM, GrapheneOS now officially supports the Google Pixel 9, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro XL.
Because it’s proprietary software. They have an open source model (based off it) called Gemma but Gemini Nano is super locked down. There aren’t even public APIs for 3rd party developers to use it through the OS yet.
None of those are cutting edge AI models that could be ripped open and examined if people had access to the files. It’s not just an app or something, there are internal trade secrets at risk.
Because Google is a monopolistic piece of shit and they try to lock you in to their shitty, privacy-invasive ecosystem. In my opinion it’s like a hundred times worse than Apple. Only Google hardware (phones and tablets) are worth buying, but only for the strong hardware security features, definitely not for the stupid proprietary software they come with by default.
Definitely high. It’s pretty funny how people manufactured this privacy perception and projected it over Apple. Apple was happy to capitalize on it and keep it going. Reminds me of the security perception over BlackBerry. Hot air either way.
