Yeah, meaning all newer phones past Android 11 shouldn’t have this issue, but they do because of a workaround by shady companies that Google is either not aware of or not addressing. This issue isn’t limited to older phones – quite the opposite.
Well that was a horrifying read. Is there any software that can protect against this? GrapheneOS? LineageOS? A Magisk module?
What do you mean? The article is talking about current versions of Android.
Chandler’s “dad” was trans, but they didn’t use that word. I don’t remember if they ever put a hard label on that character, but his dad wasn’t just a drag queen. Chandler’s growing acceptance over the course of the show was a positive, but the jokes made were not.

You could try Permute. It’s a pretty simple app for converting video and audio. Permute is my go-to for quick video conversion.
DBPowerAmp has an easy-to-use audio converter that supports pretty much every audio format and does batch file conversion as well. DBPowerAmp is my go-to for audio conversion.
Both of these are paid apps.
I would argue that Friends does not hold up so well. It still has funny bits, but it’s also quite sexist and is homophobic and transphobic (while also being one of the few big shows to even talk about gay and trans topics at the time).
Only when I took Ambien
No one has asked so I am going to ask:
What is Elon University and why should I trust them?
Imagine being in the middle of a friendly conversation where you ask a question and the person says, “Why are you asking me?? Just google it.”
For Sam:
I’ll get the champagne for us and tissues for Sam.
“Massive copyright infringement”, and it would mean massive fines or jail time for us.
You don’t think there’s debate about nuclear waste and how and where to store it? Because those are my reservations about nuclear power.
Do you think sucking dick is a bad thing?
Wire has calling voice and video calling.
This article seems to be saying that’s it’s not only possible, it’s being actively (and I would assume widely) exploited on current versions of Android. Google is supposed to catch any abuses of listed exceptions, but they are either missing a bunch or letting them intentionally slide through. Either way, apps being able to see other apps is a big security risk that IMO only the user should be able to explicitly allow, and on a case-by-case basis.
