@foxydonuts @GrapheneOS I don't understand, what is a point to have a smart #Grapheneos and use a google spyware even that you deconnect it. Use FOSS app without #googlespyware, that is point of use a #degoogled phone.

Just received this little gem from gmail (yes i know!)
I was planning to keep the gmail account as it is mainly just for those times when shops want you to sign up receive their "special discounts" = "newsletter and junkmail", but that account will be going too as soon as I finish transferring
my now USELESS iinet accounts (another story) to protonmail, and teach my tech-challenged husband how to use the protonmail calendar.)

They even added 27 old holiday booking dating back to 2015 WITHOUT ASKING ME IF I'D LIKE THEM TO DO THIS.
AND the finished off by adding this at the end -
"This is the only notification you’ll get about events from Gmail. In the future, Calendar won’t send you an email when Gmail creates a new event."

@lightweight I fear many bank apps or #SPID apps will not work without #GoogleSpyWare @bigblen
