If “rooted” is a requirement, then this won't work.

- All of my banking apps work, I have 6 of them.
- You can buy an older Pixel, 5 or 6. They're still great.
Can they develop a paint that reduces the amount of cars? That would be more helpful.
I feel like the difference is not that big, though.
If you rent, your landlord has a right to enter your apartment, even though they rarely use that right. Sometimes, they can check on things. The same applies to apartments in personal ownership: if police has a warrant, they can enter and see if there's illegal activity. So based on this analogy, no, apartments are not “encrypted” chat rooms, and I don't think any significant number of places would be considered “encrypted” or “fully private”, if you must.
Continuing with the analogy, Telegram can view and intervene in the activity on the platform, just like landlords or police, but Durov, let's call him a landlord, protects privacy of his tenants, not letting the law enforcement in.
Speaking of E2EE platforms, I'm sure there's crime happening on them, because it's logical for criminals to use more secure protocols, yet I don't see the same arguments made about them. It's just they are providing the same (better!) tools to the criminals without an option for law enforcement to see the content (but perhaps with options to ban on request).
And frankly I don't think there's too big of a difference between E2EE and non-E2EE platforms in terms of conscience: the former just deliberately deprive themselves of an opportunity to see what content goes through their services.
P.S. that said, I don't think it's ok that Telegram promotes the service as private, and that Durov ignored requests to nuke known illegal activity.
Does that mean if you provide an E2EE service, you are a criminal too, because you let people to commit crimes on your platform, you're just unable to see them? It's like having a mall with no surveillance or security.
And as someone who walks and bikes, I fucking hate that.
That sucks.
I deleted all my comments/posts on reddit a couple of years ago via a UI automation script, and they are still deleted, luckily.
Slightly off-topic, but when I stopped playing multiplayer games with anti-cheats (competitive FPS mostly), I've got more time to explore more productive hobbies, and my mental health improved. Might be worth trying 🙂
You could've made this joke without the disrespectful title.
Having things to do is important to some of us.
Also the fact that you work from home doesn't mean that you won't need to find another job later, and then your “stuff to do” might become a multi-hour commute to the new workplace.
Looks like a wankpanzer to me.

Even your map doesn't support this claim.
Belarus is marked as a country where Apple dominates, even though this is not true: Redmi (Xiaomi) and Samsung phones are more popular there (link)
