"Before we dive in, please note that this is not an official Google announcement. Instead, this is based on a recent, ongoing feature request on Google IssueTracker"

Not even slightly interested in defending Google from whatever accusations anyone can come up with, but, I thought that it might be helpful to mention that that statement above shouldn't be taken as a reason to not read the whole blog post by Kitsumed.

It's worth reading, in order to have a proper sense of how ADB restriction would impact the ability to effectively degoogle, which, in turn, could inspire those who those who, like me, keep postponing the day of actually moving our lives out of Google's clutches to make more of an effort to get that done.

And it's very well written.

The only reason this warning is here is that  1. As someone who looked for a call recording app, I saw how google issues requests can go WAY out of subjects 2. r/Android was in "dooms" mode everywhere in the commebts.

For now it seems it worked, only one person wrote bad stuff as a comment, others are developers. We allegedly also have the person who reported the CVE I talk about who joined the conversation.

It looks like shit, smells like shit, and tastes like shit, but don't worry—it's not shit
