Wondering what people are thinking about this and why the internet is so quiet about it. I am not happy. Today it decided I couldn’t use the camera without giving it extensive permissions and agreeing to it. Not cool. Update: Open Camera worked and I hope Google doesn’t block this and other apps in September as they are threatening. Almost slipped into agenda posting. You all have the internet too.
Unless I’m actively taking a picture I have all the camera permissions disabled and the lenses covered with foil stickers.
On my last phone I straight up deleted the camera app (still covered the lenses with stickers tho) and would download one whenever I had to take photos and delete it again after.
I can’t remember why I stopped doing that actually, maybe the camera app I liked that had none of that tracking shit, got removed or something, idk.
I would do the same if the app was really bothersome. Never heard of foil stickers, but I definitely use stickers on all lenses.
