Found it present on LineageOS phone (with google play services installed)
Did not find it on GrapheneOS.
Can concur. Found on LineageOS
Not installed on my pixel 9 with GrapheneOS, damn am I glad I made the switch a few months ago.
Same here, not installed on my Pixel 9 XL with grapheneOS.
Lineage is built directly from AOSP images, so this makes perfect sense.
how the fuck do i block it on lineage?
is there a way to sandbox play services to avoid this kind of bullshit?
You can uninstall it from Settings > Apps. Other apps that don’t show the Uninstall option can also be Disabled in there.
Huh, wasn’t installed on my device. I have a Samsung, so perhaps this update hasn’t been released for me yet; I’ll have to keep an eye out.
In case this helps anyone else, here’s the link to the app on play store.
It was installed on my Galaxy S21 Ultra, I think it was pushed with the latest “security” update that went through this week for me. No information abouy it in the update or notice anywhere or anything. Uninstalled that thing immediately.
S22+ here, I found it in my installed apps via system settings.
Thank you for the convenient link to uninstall!
Welp, I was just thinking about Graphene OS… maybe this is the final push…
Not having removable storage stinks.
If you do make the switch (or not) I highly recommend setting a up a backup for your contacts, photos and whatever else is important.
I started backing up apps “export settings” files too. Makes switching phones so much easier.
(I use syncthing to pick the folders I want)

I think you are underestimating just how much that sucks.
I can’t even have a full offline wikipedia on my phone and whip it out to “school” someone when on a subway in a tunnel. Like imagine not winning an argument because you can’t access the internet. I want my wikipedia always ready to back me up in an argument. (Its not a “real source” but the other person wouldn’t have the internet too, so I’d win the argument.
Also I can record like an entire terabyte of potential police brutality incidents, so the SD card slot is one of my favorite things about the smartphone. Its like an entire desktop in your pocket. Its fucking awesome.
Like, a $400 Samsung A series can have a 1TB sd card for like $130-ish more. How much does a 1TB phone cost? Like maybe a thousand USD or more. Fuck that. I can get another 1TB SD card for another $130 and swap when needed to access different content (of course those content is also copied into real hard drives, in case of SD card failure). And, although I have not tried this yet, I think a 1.5TB or a future release of 2TB microsd card would also work, phone manufacturers don’t advertise it because they probably didn’t bother to test bigger SD card sizes.
There no fucking way I’m gonna get a $1000+ smarphone that could get stolen on public transit, or just dropped. Not spending that much just for 1TB storage. So I’m probably gonna end up with 128 GB base model, and that’s fucking infuriating. Like I’m probably not gonna have a 1TB storage medium everywhere I go.
Yup, just got it on my P8 and uninstalled. I think this is the cliff for me.
“But it’s better than an iPhone!”
Lol
iPhone user here, iPhones are better than Android phones in some ways, Android phones are better than iPhones in others.
I have used both, I prefer iPhones.
A friend of mine have used both, he prefers Android.

Note for everyone, we have a phone with UK and US accounts on it. This was pushed through the US account.
Found it in Canada on my phone in Canada
It simply uses the “Not Hotdog” algorithm from Silicon Valley.
Not on LineageOS with MicroG either
I want to see nudes on my phone on, fuck Google.
It’s an android system component. You allowing unattended updates, or clicking “update” is the consensent.
Stop being disingenuous.
I have auto update disabled and only selectively update individual apps. However, I still found this installed and promptly uninstalled it.
What about mass outgoing dick pics? Better not blur those. Those are my money makers.
I presemu you’re either not Japanese or you actually are Japanese outlaw.
Wanna find out? What’s your phone number?
I’m on a pixel, not on my phone.
Same pixel 9xl not installed here. Fully up to date afaik.
Pixel 7a here, I had it on mine and uninstalled from a link to the play store in another comment
