Think I can answer my own question.

Through this site of Mozilla:
https://last-chance-for-eidas.org/

I stumbled upon this open letter:
https://eidas-open-letter.org/

At the bottom of the letter there’s a link to this form,
which I’ve signed (1. Honorific “Developer”, 2. Institution “Independant”) to join the opposition:
https://pads.c3w.at/form/#/2/form/view/mc8X+BfJrv5J-y5Z3LfONA4mpLmD7owmnWizzoikNTw/

What would be the best way to oppose / vote against this law proposition?

Take a look for yourself with a rooted phone.

Blocker will show you all the recievers/services/activities/providers the app uses,
and will allow you to block them.

Apps often still work correctly with about 80-90% of their recievers/services/providers blocked, since they’re spyware, which doesn’t add functionality to the app.

XPrivacyLua will allow you to lie to apps when they request sensitive data.

Aditionally it will show you timestamps of what it lied about, to which apps, reveiling what they try to collect on you.

ClassyShark3xodus allows you to decompile and scan apps on the fly,
to check which well known trackers are embedded into it.

Idk if these apps still do it,
since I have not used them for years,
but that’s how I learned about many things like:

• 9GAG contained a face detector service at some point.
• Facebook Messenger requests access to your microphone, even when you are not calling with it.

It depends on what you’ll run on it.

LineageOS in itself is good/private.
However the GApps/GMS are not.

I’d recommend replacing GMS with MicroG if you need that for the apps you use,
which still talks to Google,
but in a minimal way.

YouTube isn’t private either,
but Grayjay/NewPipe are.

Android TV is not free though.

You pay with yourself,
your interests / watch habits,
all being collected and sold to the best bidder for “personalized ads”…

Pair it with a Real-Debrid subscription,
then it’s not leeching,
and with premium speeds ;)
