    Their reasons mean nothing. It’s my device. I shouldn’t have to worry about an application installed on my device being policed because the developer got a hair up their ass about people downgrading.

    The phrase “more secure” is becoming meaningless as it keeps being used as a blanket excuse for literally every user hostile change.

      Sure, it’s your device. But it’s their app. Ultimately, it’s the developer’s call to make. You don’t have to use their app.

              Sounds like the app developer does not want to support you as a user. You should take it up with devs that do this if that’s a concern.

                yeah take it up with a blackholed email address, while being locked away from public transport and a lot of otherbasic services that’s literally needed for life, for saying hard no to literal malware on my phone? I think you’re a little backwards.

              Sounds like you’re using a phone that doesn’t meet the requirements specified by your employer. Might I suggest asking them for a company phone?

                  Just because they haven’t told you about the requirements doesn’t mean they don’t exist. They probably don’t support custom ROMs and they didn’t tell you because they just assumed you’re running the OS that came with the phone.

                    they don’t have any business with my fucking personal phone! where do you live, in the USA? if I only use an old dumb phone, they have no business about it! they can reach me when necessary, and that’s all they need to care

          Cool, sounds like it ain’t a problem for you then. As I imagine it’s not a problem for most people.
