@alsutton @aurynn @GrapheneOS @EUCommission @bsi I disagree.
It'll merely force them to enable aftermarket support woth an unbloated experience.
- It won't prevent manufacturers from offering and implementing unique features in terms of hardware and software.
It'll just make them responsible to not release products like #Unihertz, #WiKo, #SOYES and many others which refuse to deliver any post-launch #updates and thus sell manufactured #eWaste.
- Or has anyone seen Updates being released for the #UnihertzJelly series (including #JellyStar, #Jelly2E and #JellyMax)?
#AOSP support and #reproduceableBuilds would at least allow #Aftermarket-#ROMs like @LineageOS to support them when the manufacturer decides not to.
- Whether that happens is a different story, but at least #consumers wouldn't be at the mercy of a #vendor when it comes to #security!
