alt Hacker NewsThis isn't just about weirdos (like me) who run GrapheneOS. Huawei phones don't have Google Play services installed, or Xiaomi phones with MIUI China. That's what, a billion and a half phones that can't get to your website now?
Amazon tablets don't have Google services either, which hints that the upcoming Amazon phones also might not work with this.
If you need access to both apps from China and websites/apps from outside China, non-Apple devices have been difficult before this, primarily due to push notification infrastructure.
This makes it more difficult. But I don’t think it matters given how difficult it was prior to this.
