🧡 You loved the Privacy Switch on Murena 2.
You’ve been asking us for its return... but what if we offer you something more premium?
👉 Stay tuned. Tomorrow. Sept 18. at 3 pm CEST.

My understanding is that it just redirects all the data collection from Google to Murena. Like you’re just trading one corp for another. That’s why some people have an issue with it anyway. Especially since GrapheneOS exists. I take a slightly more nuanced view that a lot of the conveniences modern smartphone users take for granted rely on this type of backend infrastructure. It’s sort of hard to avoid if you value mainstream features. That may be sort of a controversial viewpoint though.

Where did you see that? My understand is that it’s only the case if you explicitly create then use a Murena account.
Also trading one corporation against another, in that case if the user genuinely want to (they are not being coerced), would be technically true but… Google is not “one corp”. It’s one of the largest corporation ever, one of the only two popular mobile OS. It does not mean automatically picking another corporation is better but it’s definitely hard to do worst.
Mostly through hearsay on here and Signal groups. I do agree the Murena-bad circlejerk has gone a little too far. I use an iPhone so I don’t have a dog in this race.
I think that’s what I saw someone say somewhere the point about data being directed to murena, but I suppose it depends on how murena handles data and what privacy policy’s are in place. That’s what I think many people would look at before deciding whether to use it or not
