I wrote a post on my blog where I propose a simple solution to fix the Internet. I'd love your feedback. https://gardinerbryant.com/fixing-the-internet-part-1-the-cost-of-data/
Fixing the Internet—Part 1: The Cost of Data

I'm not going to say this is an original idea, but I did arrive at this idea on my own.

The Bryant Blog
@gardiner_bryant the issue i see is that like almost any app you'll find in the play store for example needs you to agree to be tracked for some reason even sinple apps like a clock (Googles clock app needs play services or microG to work and has network permissions).
we should stop this nonsense cuz if like every app dev has your data that means it's easier to find the one that has poor security with that or the ones that profit from tracking and profiling you.
@gardiner_bryant i feel like we need stuff like microG cuz it acts like play services and makes apps work but it remoces a lot of identifiers or randomizes them and alsohas no functionalities for a app that calls privacy harmful features like firebase-analytics. it is designed to not cause apps to crash and have the least amount of data being send to google and apps that request tracking stuff.
but it's sad to have to resort to stuff like this cuz if not you'll get screwed....
