I don’t have a smartphone and I keep running into more and more of these QR codes. If I, as a citizen, am required to get a smartphone for these QR codes, to do citizen-like things, then it should be a utility and prices for hardware and services should come way down.
You get by without a smartphone? I was really late to get one but you just can’t function in today’s society without one where I’m at. In the Heart of Darkness here.
You can function in today’s society just fine, it’s just less convenient.
But the problem here is not only that you need a smartphone to begin with, but also one specifically from either Google or Apple.
Having something else (like a phone with Sailfish or GrapheneOS or any other custom rom) also doesn’t work.
I am switching to graphene OS first chance I get, it should be this summer, damn the consequences.
I lived most of my life without any type of cell phone let alone a smart one. I’m going back to our roots, to reject this techno fascist bullshit it’s only downhill from here on their gear.

Yes, please. The more users we have on Graphene the harder we are to ignore as a user base.
That’s actually a really good point! 🤔
