Why should my OS be any of their concern?
I'm living this pain with a custom ROM already, with some banking stuff, Google Wallet, WhatsApp passkeys and I think Netflix (haven't installed it) block you for tripping up Google's security tests.
If passkeys become a big thing and they'll start enforcing them and apps that have those security measures I'm going to fucking firebomb something. REEEEEE
Shit like this is why I don't have a smartphone anymore. I have a brick phone that half the time I don't even take out with me.
From what I heard passkeys need google services framework for some reason. Don't know technical reasons behind it but I would assume its bs given its google.
