How long until Android starts blocking access to websites.

I really do not trust these large tech companies.

No no no you misunderstand

They’re helping you avoid evil bad superungood pages that don’t have the right security levels.

Maybe their SSH cert is for the wrong site!

Maybe their SSH cert is just too old.

Or maybe, heavens forbid, they dont even have an SSL cert?! Heavens to Betsy what shenanigans.

Sometimes web pages spread malware. Sometimes they even spread copyright protected materials without the the rights to do so! Maybe we should start helping you avoid copyright infringement!

My cell connection blocks some pirate sites. But I’m not using for that purpose, but the second my phone does it is the second I stop using that phone.

I guess it’s just DNS level blocking. If you don’t want any blocks, switch to Cloudflare DNS. If you want a customized experience, you can create a free NextDNS account which allows for 300,000 queries/month. It also has many pre-existing blocklists for ads and trackers. You can try that out for free without signup with a temporary 7 day account, just click on “Try for free”.

Or choose some other DNS provider.

Maybe once google gets fuchsia done, and then they no longer need Android.
