⚡️🚗 ICYMI - Volkswagen has blocked its app from working on phones running custom Android ROMs like GrapheneOS, LineageOS, and /e/OS.

According to Volkswagen, the app now depends on Google’s Play Integrity API and supports only certified Android devices. Users with custom ROMs are logged out and cannot sign back in, losing access to connected car features like remote locking, climate control, charging management, and vehicle status.

Volkswagen says these operating systems are outside its supported environment because the app relies on certified Android security standards.

Sack of lies. We know it's because the cabal promised them favors to help lock us out.

Congratulations, VW got on the car blacklist. Soon there are no privacy respecting cars left. When privacy cars?

If Volkswagen change the rules, then they must supply a solution.

who needs those stupid features anyway? get yourself a used car from prior 2020, ideally running on gas and you will have no issues whatsover for may years to come.

Fking douchebags. In response we should ditch VW. Preventing privacy is unacceptable.

Don’t do that Volkswagen. Will be bad for your stock price. Think about your shareholders. They are your masters.
