not relying on google services to run

Hi, I’m sure that I’m going to ask you a lot but we need to put some perspective on that. You are developping a cross platform password manager. So it’s all about security. Don’t you think that ...

JM I think you are mistaken since it's relockable on several models.
And F-droid was just one example, it could be just an apk downloadable from the website so it's false debate about FSS since I was talking about the delivery system.
Privacy and security are intricately linked whether you like it or not. So yeah I understand you are against FOSS, but jsut abotu what I would point to you the differents MITRE reports and the DOD reports and audit about opensource vs closed source. But since it was not my point i will leave to that.
And as you pointed out yourself, and so you are demoting your own argument yourself, if there are no trackers then there is no need of google services to run the app and the core of the app can easily be replaced by something not related to a google services API at all.

And I relocked my FP3 pretty easily under divestOS so.... please rethink your copy first.
Thanks
