I'm assuming that this would apply to any "flavor" of android? ~~So Graphene is not immune from this?~~
Nvm, guess it is
From what I've heard, google free android versions won't be effected.
What if I have an android installation that has google, but I watch one of those videos on youtube that says "degoogle your android phone"? Is that enough? Or will I need a full installation that has no google right from the start?
The way I understand it, you need a non-stock Android that wouldn't enforce the cert requirements
