I have just discovered that my new Android phone apparently does not allow me to export my contacts to a .vcf file, as I have always done in the past, UNLESS I GO THROUGH A GOOGLE APP!!!!

I consider this an egregious violation of my privacy to allow Google access to my phone contacts.

Am I missing something here, or have we really been compromised to this extent that we must share all our phone contacts with the Mother Ship?

Do you know another way to save my Contacts?

Get f-droid and look for a contacts app that does not have an "anti-features" tag.

f-droid. Wow. Looks like a good resource for all kinds of things! Thanks.i (it says it stands for "free" android, but I think I prefer "fuck")
