@eff @WIRED Use #Calibre to liberate #ebooks you own, and #Libation for #audiobooks. Or just purchase from stores that offer #DRMfree downloads, like #LibroFM and surprisingly #GooglePlay Books.
i have not used #GoogleMaps in over a decade.
one of the first things i do when setting up a new unrooted #Android phone:
1. activate developer mode
2. give permission to the browser to download & install software
3. go to https://f-droid.org
4. download & install their app
5. disable #GooglePlay
then i proceed to install all my apps from there. a must have:
