A lot of places don't take cash.

My bank (Monzo) doesn't even offer an alternative way to interact or sign up except through the smartphone app.

When I get a card I need to verify my identity somehow, times past that was me going to the bank, signing a form and showing my ID card. Fucking Tim Apple or Satya McGoogle didn’t have a role in that, why should they now?

The government did though in supplying said ID, so there was a centralised trustable organisation that the bank could depend on for verification.

One or more neutral organizations could exist certifying devices and operating systems without providing a centralized API. Those organizations could simply provide signed releases with the roots of trust, revoked keys and operating system key fingerprints. Apps could use multiple different certifying organizations. This is already something Android's hardware attestation API fully supports today.

Then why doesn't GrapheneOS offer that alternative to banks etc

I've heard that. It may differ depending on culture. Some see it as bragging. In some places it's illegal to discuss in the workplace.

No you shouldn't rinse and brush as much off as possible, it undermines the environmental benefits of using the dishwasher to save water. The dishes and dishwasher will be fine.

One of the most economically interventionist governments in decades. Hardly Blairism.

I mean there's gut feeling and then there's real actual evidence.

They should default to a more modern interface rather than asking newbies to make the change.

I completed Nier Automata via GeForce Now just fine. Competitive shooters maybe not, but that's just a subset of gaming anyway.
