Well, I did not mean in a backdoor way. If google has a backdoor for the three letters agencies, I don't expect they would reveal it even if the whole country of Argentine flipped itself over.

I meant in a public way. The play store can install apps remotely through a google account but I have no idea how far this goes.

Is google even able to do it? They are unable to push os updates directly in most cases, sinco those go through phone vendors. Idk if they already have the ability to remotely uninstall apps. Maybe through the appstore?

If you are in the EU, send them a gdpr deletion request. Otherwise I guess just accept

Quite possibly not. Remember that the admins running lemmy instances have very limited revenue so paying for servers is an issue. Some instances even encourage posting links instead of images to save on cost.

Videos are in a league of their own when it comes to size and therefore the server power needed. Lemmy probably can't afford it. Its the price we pay for freedom and no ads. You have to link videos.

I just wanted to say, those are rookie numbers.
