🚨BREAKING: Google will soon install an app called #AndroidSystemSafetyCore

They say it's a "safety measure" to protect your #privacy, but in fact it's client-side scanning.

Deinstall the app on your #Android: System -> Apps

@Tutanota@mastodon.social thank you.

I've checked my phone and it's not installed. Maybe because I don't have a google account on the phone and have gutter the google apps with adb.

I will have to check my family's phones because they are less willing to give up google services
