Went in to get a burger and some covidiot in a mask yet no hair net for his man bun told me I needed a Marxist tampon over my mouth. I pointed to someone seated 10 feet away eating a burger and asked why they have a dining room open full of maskless people if it really is a pandemic. Literally said to him he was a "fucking idiot" and even the governor isn't enforcing masks.

Walked out, filled out a nasty review and will never spend another dime there. Someone needs to make an app monitoring businesses complying with this tyranny so I can easily avoid them saving my time and gas.

Pondering...

Yeah, it's a good idea, some people are probably willing to pay a small fee for that, there are bandwidth costs to cover

Now there's the diffusion problem, the platform. Chances are, the banhammer will fall quite fast on with apple/google stores

There are alternative platforms/stores for open source projects however, but the security isn't guaranteed and on top of that extracting the necessary profit from them isn't easy. Besides, you there's no guarantee a cancel culture admin won't drop the banhammer because "endangering lives" or whatever shit

But yeah, there's a market, a demand for that type of product, obviously. Rather small, but a demand nonetheless, which will probably grow as much as there are newly pissed people. A strong potential for exponential growth here if you ask me

Loading 3rd party apps is really easy on android. Download an .apk from a website and tell your phone to install it from there. There's also independent repositories (app "stores").

F-Droid hosts open source apps that aren't controlled by mega corporations. All sorts of useful things are there, for example Newtube scrapes YouTube videos and creates local playlists, preventing them from hiding updates from bad-thinkers. It also plays in the background and removes commercials, exactly the same as YouTube Red but free.

Aurora Store allows you to access Google Play without requiring a Google account, important if you want certain official apps without giving your data to Google. 90% of the spyware on your phone is just straight from the Google Play store; cut them out and your battery life doubles and your data usage plummets.

I've turned old phones into mp3 players that have no personal data or accounts simply by using these programs, and disabling everything else that's not in use. There's a million other things you can do by just installing a program, no hacking required.

I'm going to reference this sober and may pick your brain a bit later if you don't mind.

I'm not tech savvy enough myself but I used to use Buycott before they went woke. It's a terrific idea for sure.
