Don't worry they won't!

Basically, ot scans all files and shit like an antivirus does on windows? Oks
-
they will probably hide it better, and make uninstallable in the future.
-
the police of vice and virtue, just like SA has.
-
im not surprised if they are also using an AI, which is very error prone.

Fuck these cunt

Using ADB:
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.safetycoreIf you have Shizuku and aShell/ShizuShell installed, then just run this command in aShell:
pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.safetycoreAlternatively, for a GUI method, setup Shizuku and then use an app like Hail or Ice Box

cromite for chrome, and ironfox?
-
You can't search for it. You have to open a direct link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.safetycore

If you freeze via non-room methods, updating the apk will re-enable it. So it's the same situation as just removing the apk--it'll basically re-enable itself.
-
This is incorrect. It's installed silently via a background OTA. It's never installed purposefully through the google play store.
-
It doesn't show in the app drawer, but I found it via the all apps in Settings.
Go to the Settings App > Apps > "See all XX apps". It's called Android System SafetyCore, so it should be close to the top of the list. Tap on it and select Uninstall.
-
Well it looks like I don't have it. Which is good, unless its hidden and unremovable. My battery app reports up to like 60% of power usage but nothing else. That means that some stupid app in the background is running down my battery for no good reason.
-
Absolutely. It'll be part of a future "Google play services" update.
-
Now that you say that, my battery was draining fast the past couple of weeks. It would last maybe a day. It lasts 2 days again now.
-
I've never had an app frozen through ADB get auto-updated by the Play Store or Google Services and get re-enabled because of it. An app with an update available will even disappear from the Update list if disabled, and in order to update it you have to enable it first.
-
Wouldn’t it be a given that I don’t have an android phone?
-
Yep. I'm furious at Mozilla right now. But when the Firefox Phone was in development, they were one of the web's heroes.
-
I'm sticking with Gecko for sure. Trying out Waterfox over the weekend on desktop, and Fennec F-Droid on my phone.
