“incriminating” to be clear here, criticism of a political person should not cause you to be denied entry. That’s fucking insane. On the other hand, yes. Everything has to be encrypted, locked, and def have a dummy OS. I’m going to need to set some up.

Thanks for that!!! I’ll give this a shot.

Yes but, have you ever rooted a Xiaomi device. it’s VERY hard. not impossible, but very hard. Requires iirc a 28 day waiting period, and you can only do one per year. (I imagine they enforce by phone number) Here’s a guide I found with a quick google search, it requires running their super sketchy windows only utility, etc… etc… https://www.reddit.com/r/PocoPhones/comments/1bsb2ce/how_to_root_your_phone_whatever_your_xiaomi_phone/

And yes, everything you have read is true about how bad it is. Did you know by default every app is set to debuggable? it’s something the OS does, and no, you can’t turn it off from the apps perspective. The whole system is just not secure, by design.

done.

Sure sure. Hahah a fair point.

I’ll turn this into a corporate selling point!

“Hey look, we decreased the price of premium by 17% over a 12 year period. (as compared to our standard plan)”

Yeah, which is even more insane. Probably should have graphed that.

I had family members getting blocked when they were legitimately travelling for work. (Travel nurse) It’s really bad and makes it so hard to use even when you’re paying for it. Which. Is. Insane.

Also doesn’t take into account the sharing account purge. I would guess that’s easily a +50% increase if we assume half of everyone using Netflix was sharing an account that then couldn’t. Could be higher.

Could probably base a rough figure for that on subscriber count change after the restrictions were put into place.
