      Oops. Sorry buddy! I don’t use MIUI native/built-in apps. I disabled them right away through ADB.

      Mi Browser is the shittiest mobile browser anyway. As for data collection, Qualcomm collects data from the devices where their SoC built: thanks nextdns lulz

        So you won’t buy a Samsung because it may allow remote access, but the first thing you do on your phone is to remove as much access and problematic software as possible since it’s riddled with it.

        Just keep arguing with yourself, I won’t stop you.

          Nah, bruh. I’m not arguing. I’m content with my current device with my own threat model. You?
