There’s a certain “people’s republic” where they introduced a new government signature on all android apps. For “safety”, as they “check” the apps for you 😉
For now it can be bypassed after three pages of scary warnings but in the future?
Maybe it could be a big reason of why they’re liking harmony os that much, you don’t need to manually approve android apps if android apps are completely unsupported
What a fucking nightmare
Yeaah… im starting to really dislike phones tbh… i might start sticking to my laptop from now on, infinitely less restrictive
That’s a perfectly acceptable plan, were it not that a laptop is much less handy. It’s cumbersome to use a laptop while standing in a crowded bus, for instance, that’s what a phone is good for.
What about a mini laptop?
That’s only on their local android varieties though. That looks like a Xiaomi/Redmi phone? In that case head over to xiaomi.eu, download the EU version of the ROM, and flash it following the instructions there, it’s very straightforward.
With Oppo and OnePlus phones it’s equally simple, there are a ton of how-to’s over on https://forum.xda-developers.com/ for all models. If you stay in China, best get their Indian ROMs, the EU ones have some mobile bands inactive that are not in use there, but are in Asia.
For other phone manufacturers, it’s anywhere between trivial and impossible (Huawei for example). Xda-dev is your best source of info usually.
Fucking Smart Phones, how do they work?
Where do you live that you are being governed by the Insane Clown Posse?
Infamous Cave of Pooh
Suburban Michigan
Juggalopolis.
People’s Republic of the Clown.
shepooh regime
I need to know where this is so I can make sure I’m very far away from where this is
China
Augh i hate xiaomi so much.
Businesses tend to follow local laws, even outside China.
Have you tried yelling " WHOOP WHOOP" at it?
Terrain. Terrain. PULL. UP!
At least your country is down with the clown.
Fucking phones, how do they work?
Whoop Whoop
I feel your pain. Went to have a wank last night before bed and went to pornhub and my state government wants to verify age via ID card. So pornhub just said fuck that shit and my ip address is blocked from visiting the lovely site. Am sad
They just want to see your face before you masturbate. ;)
Wait until they start demanding an “after” picture.
Would mobile data work? Websites always think I’m in Colorado
Tor
For Tor to work, you have to reduce your security settings, and allow javascript; that’s not generally a good idea when you’re using Tor. Even when you do that, the network is slow enough that videos don’t seem to complete loading. (I just checked.)
Xnxx and xvideos don’t give a shit where you live friend.
Texas?
Oklahoma 🙃
Oof sorry to hear that, friend 😞
So, have you bitched at your state rep about it yet?
Oh you though state bitch works for you? You got it backwards.
State Rep is corpo bitch. Better take the complain to porn hub, they would then order state bitch to fix it.
You just gotta send an email with videos and pictures of you having a wank that only say “This won’t stop until I can watch porn freely again” .
Like they’d listen. I’m in Oklahoma, liberals don’t have a voice here.
VPN?
VPN works just fine, as long as you can set your location. I know this because some sites are blocked in my area, and I can get to them when I change my location in my VPN.
Or just use tor. Be careful when searching nsfw stuff mind you.
Isn’t that too slow for streaming video?
As someone who doesn’t know tor well, why be careful? Just the normal prudence when looking up xxx, or something specific to tor?
Depending on what search engine you use. One that also searches .onion addresses. You could end up finding some illegal nsfw material.
Thanks
True, forgot about Tor.
Yeah, good point
FAFO… bought the chinaman phone, got fucked by the chinaman
Gonna be one yike from me, fam.
China bad, says Chinese nickname
if i aint gonna bootlick daddy sam, i am surely as fuck aint gonna bootlick chinaman’s clown regime either ;)
well that’s an easy block
thank you ;)
Well you bought a Chinese phone. The Chinese government likes to restrict what its people see like all authoritarian governments.
Get something with stock Android or iOS. Better yet, go foss droid
pixel with a custom ROM for OG freedom lovers!
China, what a bastion of freedom.
There’s like 5 governments doing full dragnet surveillance in the world, wonder if one can send an interesting enough dickpic to warrant a UNSC joint session
ICP?
Incredible Communist Party
Yeah you know me
Every last homie?
That’s right; the Insane Clown Posse demands you register your apps with them for your saftey.
a permit issued by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) to permit China-based websites to operate in China
sheepooh needs to sign off on the software you run… pathetic.
Oh it is just part of Chinese censorship
I was unaware that Insane Clown Posse was approving Android apps nowadays.
Don’t buy Xiaomi.
I used MIUI.EU on Xiaomi phones for some years and it was pretty great (and inexpensive). But I wouldn’t suggest it in the USA because the carriers here don’t always play nice with them.
