Manage episode 421442607 series 2562963
Did you know that apps on your phone can see which other apps you have installed? And that apps can talk to each other and share information, without you realizing?
In this video we show you how to stop apps communicating with each other, and look at the scoped storage and sandboxing of apps in GrapheneOS, and what it does and doesn't protect against.
00:00 Apps Can Talk to Each Other
02:18 Sandboxing and Using Scored Storage on GrapheneOS
04:58 Secondary Profiles
10:24 Google Play Services: How To Stop Their Tentacles
12:10 Setting Up 2nd Profile Tutorial
13:40 Conclusion
Secondary profiles are a great privacy tool to add to your toolbox. It's super opaque what the apps on our phones are doing, and using something like GrapheneOS really helps you reclaim your privacy by default.
