    And yet my LinkedIn is still full of people complaining about how much the EU over-regulates

      I bought my secondhand OnePlus 6T only last year. Installed Linux on it, and I love it. I’m using it as my daily driver.

      Sent from my OnePlus 6T and from my bed

    Gone are the days when oneplus used to be consumer friendly company. The parent company CEO is taking advice from some wannabe Elon musk. All these people who say they understand business but have no understanding of technical knowhow shouldn’t be allowed to become business leaders but the world we live in is becoming a shithole because the bootlickers are being given these top roles.

      OnePlus was never a consumer friendly company. People only liked it because their phones were cheaper than the standard market prices, however, most people understood that this price comes with the caveat that their device is designed, manufactured, and controlled by a Chinese company. Everybody knew that the CCP had their tentacles in these devices, and so it was only a matter of time before things like this start happening.

        I would happily give my data to CCP than American companies.

        I spend my money on products which are European and Asian. I completely avoid American products and services like a plague.🤢🤢🤮

          Now who’s good bootlicker? Yes, you are! Want to bend over and give me paw?

          While you keep deepthroating the boot of an evil regime, I, on the other hand, refuse to give my data to any government or corporation and I do my damnest to make sure my data stays secure.

            Lol do you even know what bootlicking means ? Its my choice to buy and use Europeans and Asian products.

            But I like your narrative how you’re trying to make American good. Chinese bad.

            Fuck off !! CIA , ICE cunts.

    It’s not flashing a custom ROM. It is installing an OS of users choice. Enemy’s language shouldn’t be used if we want things to change

      This is why “side load” is annoying to me. It’s installing. It is not special or different. They aren’t “blocking side loading” they’re “restricting what you can install.”

    If true, this is sabotage of the customers product, and must 100% be illegal in almost any country!!
    But my guess is they are limiting this to countries that have absolute shit consumer protection.

    One plus joined my short list of “I can’t be bothered” companies like Samsung and Apple, Xiaomi, Oppo and some other sub par companies.

      OnePlus is owned by Oppo, so that’s applied for a while. Now they’re just making it clearly known
