Comment on The Browser Wasn’t Enough, Google Wants To Control All Your Software
blitzen@lemmy.ca 7 hours agoI don’t understand why you’d have to do that? I have literally zero Google interaction and I don’t have to custom build something. And I access my banks (plural) in browser only.

In my comment above I mentioned that some banks are App-only, you cannot access your funds though the website.

You can switch banks you know, it’s not convenient but easier than switching your email.

You’re forced to use that bank?

No, but switching banks just because I want to be a part of “the resistance”, against google is pretty delusional.
Bank apps aren’t the only thing that relies on “play integrity”.

You’re missing the forrest for the trees. Almost nothing relies entirely on Google without an alternative.
And even if you have a use case where you do literally rely on a Google service, you can still make steps to cut out all other Google services.
Refusal to at least try is, of course, your prerogative. But it’s tacit approval of their actions.
