>>105772995 (OP)
So what?

>>105772995 (OP)
I couldn't give a fuck of it did. I'm more concerned with western countrie, the likes of USA Israel, Canada and UK. They are all one and the same. I'll throw Australia in the, too.

>>105772995 (OP)
i'd rather china have it than the pozzed australian government. my own government is way more likely to fuck me over..

>>105772995 (OP)
Don't care, still using my oneplus 9 pro to flex on ifaggots.

Oh my science guys, is this heckin true? I was just about to upgrade from my iPhone 8 to a OnePlus 13 too. Looks like I'll have to go back to Apple, so the US can spy on me instead!

People don't consent to Palantir doing it but here we are

China getting my dickpics is a complete nothingburger

All phones do this and governments love the surrveilance like these very same lawmakers that wanna mandate digital ID, so I do agree, stealth data collection and unacceptable and all smartphone and proprietary software should be banned regardless where its from.
If it sends a packet without user request it needs to die.

What would be the best way to get my chinese handler gulagged?

>>105773189
Chinese cops wont arrest me for posting hatespeech on 4chan. Using a chink phone is a wise decision for any Western dissident

>>105773236
Your OneGay has Google preloaded, if it didn't you'd have a point.

You can buy anything from China, including data. Probably quite cheap too.

And?

>>105773641
How is the Chinese government going to do anything to him? Everything he said is true. There is a possibility of OnePlus doing something with his data, but the Chinese government for non Chinese and not going to visit? Actually are you bumping this thread?

>>105772995 (OP)
why are you using a OnePlus without a custom rom, anyway?

1. Does the phone itself do this? If so, how?
2. If it's their version of Android doing it, why are you using a phone with the operating system it came with, especially when it's a Chinese one? Install LineageOS or something similar.
3. Why did it take 15 posts for someone to mention the previous point?

>>105773093
except when you flex a chink android they are not impressed at all, and you get laughed at lol

fpbp.

your own government is your worst enemy. that has been made crystal clear in the last century.

the enemy of your enemy being your friend, applies.

>>105772995 (OP)
OnePlus still can't let you scroll through an entire icon set... and these stupid motherfuckers are supposed to be secretly sending my data to the Chinese? lol, they're simply too lazy and incompetent for that to be ever the case.

>>105772995 (OP)
Don't care. China can't arrest me.

They do it because they were fucked over by China with oneplus phones

Don't shift the blame, they would do it even if china didn't exist.

>>105775269
Many things that they do are harmful also for them and reduces their profit (stolen taxes)

>>105773009
it's good when x steals your data but bad when y does it -the hypocrisy.

Lmao look at the first four replies, chinks be seething

>>105774107
what's funny is android users are always seething and coping in every iOS / iPhone article that pops up, meanwhile iPhone users just don't give a fuck and live their own life, probably making money.

stay mad Wumao, every single piece of technology you're using in your every day life was invented in the West. yes, even what you are using to write a comment here: electricity, computer / phone, tcp/ip protocol, www and so on. your country is just a gigantic factory full of cheap garbage, either you like it or not :)

>>105775419
Baizuo bro, what are you on about?

>>105774251
imagine you're working for a company that is owned by a Chinese corp or maybe the company your wife is working at got bought up by a Chinese consortium too.
now because they know you had some Winnie the Pooh meme at some point in your phone, they will be able to refuse you or your wife any job promotion, without you ever knowing exactly why.

>>105775488
>B-But imagine this fictional scenario!
Why should I imagine anything about CCP when its exactly happening in the west except its the Jews doing all of that?

>>105775561

>>105774251
They know he's right, it's just damage control. What's the CCP going to do to a foreign national who doesn't live there? This argument is like 25 years old and it hasn't been refuted once in that time.

literally why I got a one plus.

>>105775419
>your country is just a gigantic factory full of cheap garbage,
Not a chinese but moving all the manufacturing to China was extremely retarded. They can stop selling it to you and you will have nothing. You basically gave China huge control over west, almost for free.

>>105775561
How do you know that Chinese are not also doing it if half of your country uses Chinese devices?

Zoomette here,
are oneplus phones good?
who here has exp with them

>>105772995 (OP)
Ok.
How can I stop my phone from sending data to american servers?
I'm more afraid of them looking through my shit than Chinese.

>>105772995 (OP)
Oh no! US hardware and software doesn't transmit data to US servers without user consent! China bad!

>>105776071
Show tits and ass first.
I am still using my Oneplus 3T (Yes, THREE), it works, of course battery has degraded a bit.

One Plus 13 according to all reviews is a decent phone for its price.

t.Chink

>>105775561
thats called whataboutism and there is absolutely no proof to back up your claim. here in the west I can criticize my government freely without fearing going to jail.

meanwhile the authoritarian government of China has a full blown system to monitor and reward/punish their citizens behavior called the Social Credit System. by extrapolating a little I can say that Chinese tech companies are also extending this system to non Chinese citizens abroad. this is not science fiction.

>>105775903
>moving all the manufacturing to China was extremely retarded
it was not retarded for company owners if they wanted to get richer and stay competitive, but it was retarded for western government to let it go this freely
>They can stop selling it to you and you will have nothing
except they have no interest in doing that. less money and less jobs? why?
also re-industrialization and manufacturing of the west is already happening, because wages in China are getting higher. this is something that is going slowly but has been accelerating since the COVID crisis.

>>105776286
> here in the west I can criticize my government freely without fearing going to jail.

No you can't. Have you checked the major countries in the EU?

It's really funny to follow the trend in the recent years and how much projecting is going on by the USA/Europe.

But cattle stays cattle and does not notice anything. Even the Covid19 pandemic was not enough, will never wake up, will never make it.

>>105775914
I'm not saying they're saints and won't ever steal your data given the chance, but what possibly could a chink do with my data compared to a Jew who views all non-Jews as subhuman animals that exist to become slaves to them? At worst I make a retarded move and give my credit card info to a shady Chinese website that'll end up stolen afterwards, compared to Jews and their golems literally ruining your life and future directly within 24hrs, just like that guy who sang "Death to the IDF".

>>105776326
>No YoU CaNt
of course I can, that's why there are different political parties and medias with different ideologies confronting each other every day in the public debate.
this is also why I can vote for a political party which is the complete opposite of the current prime minister / president.

meanwhile in China you have a single party, and all the media are controlled by the government. dare to say something against Xi? get ready to get sent to jail and have -100 on your social credit score. you are now forbidden to drive a car on public roads or book a train ticket to visit your family, until your behavior improves.

>>105776286
>Casually changes the goalpost
Classic Jewish behavior

>>105773082
>>105773037
There's just the slight problem in that the phone is sending the data to both. It's not happening instead of sending the data to your government, they wouldn't let it be sold if it didn't (and if it wasn't objectively terribly performing, like pinephones or the librem 5).

>>105776325
>they have no interest in doing that
You could have noticed that totalitarian governments can do some stupid things that don't benefit them.

>>105776346
I can tell a Vatnik made that meme. funny is COVID vaccine were compulsory in China and I won't even start about their quarantine where they literally chained doors to deter people from living their homes.
what's even more funny is that China despises Russia and are taking advantage of them since their struggling in Ukraine.
keep trying to save face Boris.

In this case obviously the thing from which the discussion started: >>105775488. Except that they will use the data of company owner instead of your data, to blackmail him.

>>105776365
Nope

In the US, there is only really 2 parties.
In the EU they are trying their hardest to ban right wing parties, they are also all under surveillance, I guess you know nothing after all besides watching some meme webms and grifter videos on Youtube.

>>105776418

Nice, just confirming you are watching the ever same webms and youtube videos being posted.
The vaccine was not compulsory.

Good thing there is something like ChatGPT nowadays, the better searching machine. Now go crawl back to where you came from.

>>105776325
> it was not retarded for company owners if they wanted to get richer and stay competitive, but it was retarded for western government to let it go this freely
They did it not only for profit but to make the locals cope and seethe upon seeing the lavish lifestyles of the West. Burgerland hoped the it would be enough to make Chinese people revolt and topple the seeseepee.
Except of course that didn't happen since the evil seeseepee worked together with the citizens in uplifting their way of life. kek

>>105776500
>In the US, there is only really 2 parties
still more than China, and I can freely criticize each of them and make memes about Trump or Biden without fearing jail time.
>In the EU they are trying their hardest to ban right wing parties
where exactly? since far right parties are thriving more and more in the whole EU
>they are also all under surveillance
just because the AfD is under surveillance by the BND doesn't mean all of them are.
>The vaccine was not compulsory.
yea it was not compulsory and there was no lockdown at all in China, right Wumao?
>Nice, just confirming you are watching the ever same webms and youtube videos being posted.
tell me more about these youtube videos, you seem pretty well informed
>there is something like ChatGPT nowadays, the better searching machine
what? LOL

>>105772995 (OP)
That's fine. So long as it's not directly transmitting data to the NSA, I'm cool with it.

>>105777644
If by shitty products you mean fentanyl then yeah, to be fair american glowniggers are also doing that but also so much more.

Americans are genuinely accusing China of what they themselves do

>>105777661
The American government created the opioid crisis, if anything chinks are just undercutting them like they do everywhere else.

>>105777661
No one in China forced you to get hooked on opioids.

>>105777761
Neither did anyone in the cia force those niggers to do crack.

>>105778031
Not crack, but the sackler family bought medical journals to shill opioids and paid doctors to shill them to people who didn't need them.

1+ social credit points have been deposited to your account

>>105776262
Based chink. I still have my old 3T as well, it works good enough, although the battery last like 2 hours max now lol. One of the best phones I've ever had.

Remember when Huawei got in trouble for selling telecoms to Iran, which pissed off the US because theirs weren't being used?

They eventually learned the hard way, when Lebanon and Iran both used equipment that had US spyware in them. Leading Lebanese people to have their phones blow up in their hands and blowing up their dicks through their pockets and Iranian people getting precision drone struck.

how about the phones that do the same to us servers?

>>105773977
>1. Does the phone itself do this? If so, how?
It would have to be the phone. Did you mean is it software or hardware? I guess they suggest it does it by mobile data to a Chinese satellite or something, otherwise you'd just see connections in the log on the router.
Because OnePlus can essentially run arbitrary code after updates, that where you can always "potentially" have data transfer.
The article is wishy-washy about what their allegations actually are though, so it's difficult to say. Perhaps those making the claim are also being vague.
>2. If it's their version of Android doing it, why are you using a phone with the operating system it came with, especially when it's a Chinese one? Install LineageOS or something similar.
OnePlus stopped publishing the phone reset tool for models after the OnePlus 9 Pro. Because of that, there are few to no developers willing to potentially brick phones to get custom ROM working on current models, and therefore no custom ROMs available after the 9 Pro.

>>105780628
can you even do this stuff nowdays without losing a lot of functionality? ever since the phone became a credit card replacement they ramped up the lockdowns to levels people couldn't even imagine a while ago

>>105780747
It depends on whether you mean installing a custom OS, or completely removing Google Play Services from your device.
LineageOS is the easier part, because most users install Google Play Service blobs right after their OS install. For a while LineageOS even included this as a built in default.
To me, this defeats the purpose of using an alternative OS, so I haven't installed Google Play Services.
Without Google Play Services, I have encountered just two drawbacks that are not able to be resolved with an acceptable effort/pay-off ratio:
>NFC payments
I never used these in the first place, as I got into this stuff before it was widespread and I had a phone with NFC, though I would have liked to.
I believe it is doable to get NFC payments working on custom OSs, but you will need Google Play Services, and you'll be playing a bit of a cat and mouse game with Google too. Chasing the next workaround for passing SafetyNet, device integrity, etc.
I think it requires a locked bootloader these days too, which is sometimes possible with a custom OS if you're device supports relocking the bootloader.
I have a MagSafe case with my contactless debit card in there. Not as good as NFC but acceptable.
>Google maps
It's easy to use with Google Play Services on LineageOS, but without them, you can't.
I use OrganicMaps as a replacement and it's as useful as Google Maps in most areas and even has a few advantages in things like offline maps and the amount of small footpaths and tracks that have been logged on OSM, but it is does lack a couple of features that Google Maps has.
It doesn't have traffic updates, and it can't do public transport pathing (though there is a slow moving but not dead issue building towards a robust solution for this.)
Other than those two things, I don't notice any missing functionality, though I've made sure to stay well outside of the Google ecosystem, so if you're already in there you'll probably encounter more problems staying in there effectively.
