Was Google da wieder vorhat, lässt mich noch mehr über ein neues Smartphone mit #eOS nachdenken.
@… wie ist es mit eurer GLS-Banking-App, funktioniert die unter /e/OS?

The first thing I see when I log into YouTube temporarily on an incognito tab isn’t freedom, it’s ads for Disney and honestly, that’s not marketing… that’s fascism in high heels! 🤢
SecureBlue comes with Trivalent as the default browser with a weak adblocker, and I use FreeTube, but I keep this Google account around just to download banking apps on my secondary GrapheneOS profile.

Addressing Deepfake Issue in Selfie banking through camera based authentication
Fake images in selfie banking are increasingly becoming a threat. Previously, it was just Photoshop, but now deep learning technologies enable us to create highly realistic fake identities, which fraudsters exploit to bypass biometric systems such as facial recognition in online banking. This paper explores the use of an already established forensic recognition system, previously used for picture camera localization, in deepfake detection.

Here is CUPW's fact sheet on Postal Banking “A Bank for Everyone”
Fun fact!
"our post office used to have a national savings bank – up until 1969 – and there is no reason we shouldn't have one today”
Some other reasons:
"Banks are failing to meet the needs of a growing number of Canadians. Thousands of towns and villages across our country do not have a bank. But many of them have a post office that could provide access to financial and banking services.”
"Postal banking is lucrative!
New Zealand: Kiwibank generated 81% of New Zealand Post's after tax profits.”
"France: Banque Postale has an obligation to provide products and services to as many people as possible. It provides a Livret A or passbook savings account, at no charge, to anyone who requests it. It also provides banking services to the financially vulnerable and financing for social housing, voluntary organizations and microentrepreneurs lacking bank credit.”
"Canada Post's secret postal banking study
Canada Post conducted a secret four-year study on postal banking that indicates that adding this service "would be a win-win strategy" for the corporation. This study was obtained though an Access to Information (ATI) request. Unfortunately, 701 of the study's 811 pages were redacted. CUPW has asked Canada Post's President to release the full report, but he has refused.”

Banking 2.0: The Stablecoin Banking Revolution -- How Digital Assets Are Reshaping Global Finance
The global financial system stands at an inflection point. Stablecoins represent the most significant evolution in banking since the abandonment of the gold standard, positioned to enable "Banking 2.0" by seamlessly integrating cryptocurrency innovation with traditional finance infrastructure. This transformation rivals artificial intelligence as the next major disruptor in the financial sector. Modern fiat currencies derive value entirely from institutional trust rather than physical backing, …

Warren Buffet’s observation that
“we only know who is bathing naked when the tide goes out”
is a restatement of Galbraith’s argument that bad corporate and banking structures in 1929 only looked obvious with hindsight.
This was demonstrated again in 2008. Today the banking system is far stronger, but stricter regulation has meant that risks have gravitated to non-banks.

Optimists always get more airplay than spoilsports predicting an end to the good times. But hindsight tells all.

The only reason I haven't switched to GrapheneOS already is that getting the physical codes to reactivate all my banking apps is a fucking nightmare, and I am fond of having access to money.
Time was you could just authenticate a device without having to get postal mail...

What options do I have for phones with good cameras that do not throw money down a fascist mega company's throat but still have good support for open ROMs and banking apps? I'm afraid the answer is none, but happy to hear any suggestions.
