Kurzes Geschwafel über die Google-Geoblocking-Funktionen aus Gründen. Es scheint, dass wir hier keine Erdbeben oder Autounfälle haben dürfen. Außerdem erkennt der Google Store die Existenz Luxemburgs immer noch nicht an (dies ist seit der Einführung der Nexus-Telefone im Jahr 2013 der Fall). Viele KI-Funktionen (nicht, dass ich diese im Besonderen vermisse) sind auch nicht verfügbar.
Google will hier ein milliardenschweres Rechenzentrum bauen, kümmert sich aber nicht um seinen Kundenstamm.

Happy for car crashes to be forbidden! Would mean a lot less traffic
I had Pixel 1-3, it was a nightmare, I had to switch to an iPhone
> It seems that we are not allowed to have earthquakes
who tell him

Before we have an earthquake in Luxembourg let alone most of Europe, there is going to be death by heat stroke or drowning. Italy does have some quakes tho.

Edit:
Had to add this. Is this Earthquake in the room with us right now?
Same here… pixels don’t support most features in the EU. I gave up already because Samsung or iPhones provide the same features on those countries.
Google Pixel with GrapheneOS here
Thanks for the reminder to not buy a Google phone. I didn’t need the reminder, I wasn’t going to do it anyway, but the reminder is helpful nonetheless.
you’re not the customer, you’re the product.
Yeah, I was excited about the Fitbit Air and dropped it on the first day. Google don’t care about Luxembourgish market
if you get a pixel honestly is to install graphene OS and have a more private phone. not to allow further tracking by google and fill your life with AI.
anyway what are the chances you get a earthquake here we are not in a earthquake prone zone. as for vpn there are more private like protonvpn that can be installed and its made in europe.
as for geolocking features, it is normal technology didn’t get globalization; starting with zoned dvd, different netflix catalogs everything is geo-fenced or geolocked. it is the same for everything. hence the emergence of vpn and proxies.
for the record. you should be grateful those option are not allowed here because they go against the eu privacy practises which in the US are not existent so they can implement all that.. laws are tighter here more privacy so those features break!
I remember that they didn’t allow 5G for a long time either. But a lot of these software locks are the same in other European countries. It’s limited to the US and maybe a handful of others.
Usually I’d care but since they also don’t get the hardware right… Wouldn’t wanna get one anyway, even though I quite like their design.
