There’s a certain “people’s republic” where they introduced a new government signature on all android apps. For “safety”, as they “check” the apps for you 😉
For now it can be bypassed after three pages of scary warnings but in the future?
Maybe it could be a big reason of why they’re liking harmony os that much, you don’t need to manually approve android apps if android apps are completely unsupported
Augh i hate xiaomi so much.
Have you tried yelling " WHOOP WHOOP" at it?
At least your country is down with the clown.
Fucking phones, how do they work?
Whoop Whoop
I feel your pain. Went to have a wank last night before bed and went to pornhub and my state government wants to verify age via ID card. So pornhub just said fuck that shit and my ip address is blocked from visiting the lovely site. Am sad
Would mobile data work? Websites always think I’m in Colorado
Tor
Xnxx and xvideos don’t give a shit where you live friend.
So, have you bitched at your state rep about it yet?
Oh you though state bitch works for you? You got it backwards.
State Rep is corpo bitch. Better take the complain to porn hub, they would then order state bitch to fix it.
You just gotta send an email with videos and pictures of you having a wank that only say “This won’t stop until I can watch porn freely again” .
Like they’d listen. I’m in Oklahoma, liberals don’t have a voice here.
Texas?
Oklahoma 🙃
Oof sorry to hear that, friend 😞
VPN?
Or just use tor. Be careful when searching nsfw stuff mind you.
As someone who doesn’t know tor well, why be careful? Just the normal prudence when looking up xxx, or something specific to tor?
Depending on what search engine you use. One that also searches .onion addresses. You could end up finding some illegal nsfw material.
True, forgot about Tor.
Yeah, good point
Why have we given juggalos so much power?
It must run on magnets.
Because there’s magic everywhere in this bitch
It was always going to end this way.

Well you bought a Chinese phone. The Chinese government likes to restrict what its people see like all authoritarian governments.
Get something with stock Android or iOS. Better yet, go foss droid
pixel with a custom ROM for OG freedom lovers!
Don’t buy Xiaomi.
I used MIUI.EU on Xiaomi phones for some years and it was pretty great (and inexpensive). But I wouldn’t suggest it in the USA because the carriers here don’t always play nice with them.
Why did you even buy a phone meant for the Chinese market in the first place?
Could live in China.
Odd since he is on an Italian-speaking instance
China also ends in-a the vowel!
random arm flapping
Could be a descendant of Marco Polo.
Might want to get out of china.

Presumably because it’s much cheaper.
There are reasons why it’s cheaper, and none of them improve your life.
There are plent of cheap chinese phones supported by lineage os tho.
Eh BIOS level rootkits have been around for a while. If uncle sam wants to watch you, believe me they will, just the same way uncle china does.
Well today it’s maybe a bad idea (I havent really digged through it all recently but it seems to be a not good idea), but back in the day Xiaomi was the beast phone for cheap, with all the bells & whistles like swappable battery, sd card, good CPU & RAM etc. for a fraction of the cost of an iPhone or Samsung.
So well, time changes!

I’ve got your ICP registration info right here baby WOOP WOOP
China, what a bastion of freedom.
There’s like 5 governments doing full dragnet surveillance in the world, wonder if one can send an interesting enough dickpic to warrant a UNSC joint session
ICP?

That’s right; the Insane Clown Posse demands you register your apps with them for your saftey.
a permit issued by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) to permit China-based websites to operate in China
sheepooh needs to sign off on the software you run… pathetic.
Oh it is just part of Chinese censorship
I was unaware that Insane Clown Posse was approving Android apps nowadays.
Incredible Communist Party
Yeah you know me
Every last homie?
Can you install a jailbreak OS, or is that not allowed for “safety”?
In this specific case can do it but the bootloader unlock request must come from a Chinese ip address, from a verified Chinese number (get otp code via SMS) and wait like one month
And I bet this process is going to add you to some list of people to keep an eye on.
Since when do they have those rules? A year ago I unlocked my Xiaomi phone. Outside China. Did not have a Chinese phone number. It took less than an hour.
But it’s global version or China version?
China version ROM is like this since the mi 6, the excuse was “limiting grey market sales”
Also the ROM now uses a different signature so from mi 5 onwards, flashing global ROM on china version, doesn’t allow to lock the bootloader again (you can send the command to lock it, but then you get a softbrick)
Different for chinese and non Chinese markets I guess
It sucks!
FAFO… bought the chinaman phone, got fucked by the chinaman
Gonna be one yike from me, fam.
China bad, says Chinese nickname
if i aint gonna bootlick daddy sam, i am surely as fuck aint gonna bootlick chinaman’s clown regime either ;)
well that’s an easy block
thank you ;)
