That's a fair point. Actively disabling it at the last minute, after everything had been underway, is significant.

Yeah, I honestly don't understand why this narrative even needs to be played out.
I don't know what angle there is by making Musk a scapegoat beyond, maybe, Ukraine trying to strengthen its supporting relationship with the US population, but it already has most of the US support anyway.
Musk has his issues, there's no doubt about that, but not wanting to be involved is an ethical stance to take on his part.
Man, they're attacking telescopes now. What a shitshow
100% agree. It flags infractions, you have people verify what was being flagged, due course follows.
It's almost as if reality news is converging with Onion news. Each passing year it just gets worse.
From civillians getting bombed, to this, to soldiers expecting to die as they lay in trenches outside of their cities being burned.
And then you have the civillians inside Russia who are brave enough to protest against the war, but at what cost.
It's depressing.
and requires a kernel level always on spy driver to watch the Chrome process to prevent tampering with it?
That would be one method, yeah. The attester supplies a kernel driver and uses that to generate the auth tokens communicating with it via some protocol or via scanning memory.
The driver is just chilling in the machine, perhaps even evasive to lsmod, such that the only way to detect it is to have your own driver monitoring for some specific signal before the attestor driver gets installed, and then using that signal to track its installation.
There's always a way. But, as you say, with phones it's not as simple.
GrapheneOS or some other ROM on an unlocked Android phone is probably going to be the only way of bypassing it.
Nothing new here.
Same old shit.
They're gonna do what they're gonna do.
There will be ways around it.

Be patient. It takes time to "get going".
If you know how to program, you're in a good spot. If you don't know how to program, start with fundamentals.
SICP is good. It's Lisp. You'll probably never write a line of Lisp professionally, but it will help shape how you reason about solving problems.
Develop some solid fundamentals.

All good points.
