Any source on this?

Lineage allows people to have newer android/security patches on end-of-life phones, that’s a pretty good security argument.

I don’t think the it would ever work over I2P, the bandwidth is just too low/slow for streaming and the downloading would be very sloooww.

I think this is the more probable version of events.

Same thing here :)

I don’t think it’s primarily about the algorithm or “Public Enlightenment and Propaganda” but instead about data and company ownership. Currently the US and EU are far closer allies with each other than with china. Services that are owned/controlled by their countries are therefore prioritized, and competing services from non-ally countries are way more scrutinized.

Haha, wonder what Google will do.
