@aproposnix Yep. The push "just install our app, it will be easier" neccessarily folows with "abrakadabra, more spyware in our app now!" :-(. This ... should not be legal. City doing this is even more disgusting.

@aproposnix That may be worth talking to press, actually. Government should not be spying like this :-(.

@aproposnix Yeah, so I'm not likely to help here, as my long-term plan is "get rid of android", but ... this is not ok :-(.

@pavel yeah, that's my goal as well. I'd love to have a pure Linux phone but we're just not there yet.
