ProtonVPN Apps Open Sourced for Added Transparency and Security

The code for ProtonVPN apps on all supported platforms - Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows - is now open source, the maker announces today, a move that follows a security audit from an independent party.

The decision distances the service from all the other options on the market and is in line with the company's belief in ethics, transparency, and security as core values for a trusted VPN (virtual private network) provider.

microG: Android (almost) without Google – our interview with the developer

The use of microG means that on smartphones, you can enjoy the comfort of Android without being spied on from front to back. It’s a sort of „castrated“ Android, where hardly any data are transferred to the Google servers. How does Google manage to enforce control over the mobile operating system Android with all its might? What does it take to stand up against Google? That and much more, we will find out in our interview with the inventor of microG, Marvin Wißfeld.

Protection is misspelled, says Google: It should be Dumb Browser Stalking Enabler

Chocolate Factory boffins doubt Apple can fix it, either

Google security researchers have published details about the flaws they identified last year in Intelligent Tracking Protection (ITP), a privacy scheme developed by Apple's WebKit team for the company's Safari browser.

In December, Apple addressed some of these vulnerabilities (CVE-2019-8835, CVE-2019-8844, and CVE-2019-8846) through software updates, specifically Safari 13.0.4 and iOS 13.3. Those bugs could be exploited to leak browsing and search history and to perform denial of service attacks.

MinMicroG Installer

By MOVZX and FatherJony and FriendlyNeighborhoodShane

GitHub source code: https://github.com/FriendlyNeighborhoodShane/MinMicroG

Github downloads: https://github.com/friendlyneighborhoodshane/minmicrog_releases/releases (all edition can be downloaded here)

This is a simple MicroG installer that only installs the minimum basics. It can install MicroG into your system partition or as a Magisk module. It supports virtually all mobile architectures (arm/64, x86/64, mips/64) and fully supports KitKat and above. It can also (mostly) support much older versions, but sync adapters and some location providers won't work. It can even uninstall itself from your device, just rename it and flash it again. MinMicroG uses official microG APKs so can be updated from the microG F-droid repo.

The things included in the Standard Edition zip are:

- MicroG (GMSCore, GSFProxy, Droidguard, Maps APIv1) (from MicroG FDroid repo)
- Google Play store (modded for IAPs by Setialpha)
- UNLP backends (Dejá vu, LocalGSM, LocalWiFi, Mozilla, Nominatim, RadioCells) (From FDroid repo)
- AuroraDroid (From Whyorean's GitLab)
- AuroraServices (From Whyorean's GitLab)
- Swipe libs for AOSP keyboard (From OpenGApps GitHub repo)
- Some Google DRM jars (From OpenGApps GitHub repo)
- Google Sync adapters for KK to O (From OpenGApps GitHub repo)
- Permission files for all of this
- An addon.d file to backup/restore everything on a rom flash

The things included in the NoGoolag Edition zip are:

- MicroG (GMSCore, GSFProxy, Droidguard, Maps APIv1) (from MicroG FDroid repo)
- FakeStore (from MicroG FDroid repo)
- AuroraStore (From Whyorean's GitLab)
- AuroraDroid (From Whyorean's GitLab)
- AuroraServices (From Whyorean's GitLab)
- UNLP backends (Dejá vu, LocalGSM, LocalWiFi, Mozilla, Nominatim, RadioCells) (From FDroid repo)
- Permission files for all of this
- An addon.d file to backup/restore everything on a rom flash

The things included in the UNLP Edition zip are:

- UNLP (From FDroid repo)
- Maps APIv1
- UNLP backends (Dejá vu, LocalGSM, LocalWiFi, Mozilla, Nominatim, RadioCells) (From FDroid repo)
- Permission files for all of this
- An addon.d file to backup/restore everything on a rom flash

The things included in the AuroraServices Edition zip are:
- AuroraServices (From Whyorean's GitLab)
- Permission files for all of this
- An addon.d file to backup/restore everything on a rom flash

The zip debloats 3 Google apps from your phone (GmsCore, GoogleServicesFramework, Phonesky and their MicroG counterparts) and 4 NLP providers. In Magisk mode, they won't be removed from system, and if you uninstall the pack, they'll come back. If you install in system, the debloated stuff will be stored in internal-storage/MinMicroG/Backup.
WARNING: This zip does not and never will debloat anything else because that is the minimum coming in MicroG's way. I have had my own share of PTSD with debloating. I believe (through guesswork) that it should work even on flashes over gapped ROMs, but don't take my word for it. Debloat before you flash.

For support:
If you flashed through recovery, provide its logs.
If you used Magisk Manager, provide its logs.

Thanks to @osm0sis for the base magisk/recovery code and inspiration and guidance on the majority of the stuff in here. You're awesome.
Thanks to @Setialpha, the creator of NanoDroid, and ale5000 for the lib installation code and permissions code.
