314m what a joke! Still, good to see them lose this court case
- If it could be repeated 49 times, that might start to add up a little
Always nice to see a positive outcome, let's hope they lose the appeal.
- I hate that this is how our legal system has evolved. Trial courts mean nothing when a corporation loses, because invariably an appeal is filed, and if the circuit court upholds a ruling, well, time to talk to SCOTUS.
  
  You'd prefer to lose the right to appeal?
Glad I'm running GrapheneOS. The only thing Google play services is allowed to do is validate apps and give me notifications.
- Does banking apps work on your cellphone?
  
  I have never had a problem with my credit union on GrapheneOS.
  
  Really just depends, one of my banking apps doesn't work, but another bank's app does work. When it comes to payment apps, I only use PayPal, which unfortunately doesn't work for me either. They have a long GitHub list keeping track of what apps have been reported to be working.
  
  Not OP but I'm also running GrapheneOS. After some initial difficulty I had with one of my banking apps I got everything to work just fine.
  What does not work unfortunately is paying via google wallet or revolut.
