TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

yeah. like my manufacturers' 3-year-old, full-o-spyware ROM is more secure than latest clean installed lineage.

they just want control, not security. and with banking apps becoming a necessity, i'm starting to be forced to return to stock.

Myself, I use my bank's web portal via my mobile browser. Not as instant as an app, but it gets the job done.

Culprit is: I need the phones app as second factor to log in to the web interface.

I'd just leave for a different bank at that point, although I get that it's not always practical.
