First 48 hours with GrapheneOS on the Pixel 9 Pro

  • The author transitioned to using GrapheneOS on a Pixel 9 Pro to reduce reliance on Google services, particularly moving away from their email account.
  • The installation process of the deGoogled ROM was smooth, making it user-friendly compared to previous experiences with custom ROMs.
  • Upon completion, the author encountered bare-bones Android with minimal apps and lacked onboarding guidance for non-technical users.
  • Despite challenges with Google Play services, the author managed to install sandboxed apps, including the Google Play service through Graphene’s App Store app.
  • Issues with Pixel Watch connectivity arose, impacting functions like Do Not Disturb setting sync, Fitbit notifications, and delayed ring notifications for calls.
  • Certain remedies were found, such as using Google’s phone app for improved call notifications and considering the installation of Google’s messages app for RCS support.
  • Despite initial setbacks, some functionalities on the watch, like the calendar, Keep notes app, and even Google Pay worked surprisingly well in a restricted Google environment.
  • The author contemplated reverting to the stock OS due to challenges but was reminded to gradually transition away from Google services and maintain privacy and device agency.
  • Concerns over Google’s data collection practices and privacy intrusions, alongside security enhancements on GrapheneOS, influenced the decision to continue using the deGoogled ROM.
  • Exploration of geolocation access and establishing work-related apps on the new OS are next on the author’s agenda, focusing on maintaining control and privacy over the device.
  • The choice to use GrapheneOS despite integrating Google services stems from the desire for device agency, increased privacy, and security hardening features not provided by Google's stock OS.

The Guardian view on a tax war: the world must unite against American obstruction | Editorial

  • Donald Trump’s Oval Office tirade on Friday laid bare his instinct to harangue and bully those – even supposed allies such as Ukraine, fighting for its survival – who dare to disagree.
  • The discussion at the UN revolves around a new tax convention that may allow states to tax economic activity where it actually occurs, rather than allowing multinationals to shift profits to tax havens.
  • Before Mr Trump’s election, about half of global tax losses were facilitated by the eight nations opposed to a UN tax convention. However, opposition to the convention takes two forms: constructive and destructive.
  • A united front at the UN is needed to forge a global tax system not dictated by Washington’s whims. The world doesn’t need US approval to fix global taxation. It needs the will to move forward together.
