The idea of using a VPN by Google seems wrong to me?
-
This isn't a service for someone who has the knowhow to get their own VPN. It's so grandmas don't get their bank accounts hacked while on hotel wifi.
-
That won't happen nowadays and if it does, the bank should get sued for not meeting minimal security standards
-
-
Devils advocate: if you don't use a 3rd party VPN already, this provides some additional safety when using random WiFi.
Not the best solution for you, but "OK" for 95% of users.
-
So what security does a VPN provide now says?
-
-
So it's probably goonna be 799€ here in Europe.
It really depends on the pre order bonus and I'd actually consider it over the 7a or Zenfone 10
Love my 4a. Only thing I hate about it is the battery life and that it wo to receive any updates anymore
-
Still using a 4a too but occasional powerbutton bugs are making me considering an upgrade. Free Google photos are making me keep the 4a... still not sure between 7a and 8...

Neveeer buying a pixel again.
It was a good phone before google decided to become a digital rights management overlord. Every other action on my phone now has some stupid tracking popup to sign in to something, save something, translate something. GTFOff my screen holy shit.
My phone's hardware is still all good but I've been forced to look for a new one. Fuck you google
-
That sounds like the apps you use, my Pixel asks for authorisation for each app to access something the first time and that's it. Never been asked to translate anything or had tracking pop-ups except on websites.

Might be worth checking out GrapheneOS
