Google has big plans for Android in 2026, and most of it is AI.
I’ll be interested to see if and how badly those “features” trickle down to custom ROMs. It’s probably all proprietary in one way or other, so independent projects won’t have a choice but exclude them 🤞
Bad news for anybody running OEM Android, though.


If you think an iPhone or Mac aren’t hoovering up your data too, then you’re truly lost on what privacy looks like lmao. Apple slaps “privacy respecting” on all of their data collection and surveillance and people really fall for it. Go ahead and monitor the network activity on a brand new Mac with nothing on it and watch it phone home constantly. Apple devices profile you, they track your every move and application launch, and they publicly admit this.
