This device has been eol for years. It’s a major security risk. Get a supported phone.

I feel like a broken record at this point, but putting LineageOS on it still doesn’t fix the issue of no driver and firmware updates and you sacrifice secure boot, which makes the whole thing not worth it imo.
At least go for DivestOS which does support secure boot whenever possible. Even then, there’s no making an end of life phone secure. You can only do harm reduction.
Don’t use Lineage. It doesn’t even have secure boot. DivestOS would be a better option but keep in mind, there’s no making an end of life phone secure. All you can do is mitigate, like putting a bandaid on a bullet wound.
Tldr save up for a new phone and use DivestOS in the meantime for harm reduction only.
In the case of LineageOS which doesn’t even support secure boot, I’d argue no. You may have a look at DivestOS though. Keep in mind no matter what you do, there’s no making an end of life device secure. You can only do harm reduction. Basically putting a bandaid on a bullet wound.
That’s not a real solution since you’ll still miss out on driver and firmware updates. Worst of all, installing Lineage gets rid of secure boot. Which needless to say, isn’t secure.
Two years worth of known security vulnerabilities is VERY significant. That’s literally hundereds of them, at least.
Not justifying this in any way but the S9 hasn’t received security updates in ages. It’s the phone equivalent to still running Windows XP, it’s a major security risk. You should upgrade to some newer phone. Personally I like the Pixels since you can run GrapheneOS which definitely doesn’t have any ads and the newest models get updates for 7 years.
You wouldn’t download a car?
Are they also banning the Viet Cong flag? Cause that’s basically what Hamas and Hezbollah are for their respective countries. Also, equating resistance movements with the Nazis is utterly disgusting.
They’re both fascists. The issue is the whole undemocratic American voting system.
I’m not gonna vote for Mussolini just because I think he’s better than Hitler.
We need anti government protests on a massive scale. No amount of voting will ever “fix” this country.
US propagandists disgust me. Guess what the US regime would have said during the native American genocide if asking about it.
Even Colin Powell at the UN speaking about Iraq’s WMDs was more convincing. Yawn.
Somaliland is a country completely separate from Somalia. It’s just not internationally recognized. Somalia still claims it but that’s just a formality.
Got other made up stories? Time and time again has shown that every single thing that comes out of the mouths of US and Israeli politicians is a lie unless proven otherwise.
“Terrorists” is the 21st century equivalent to “savages” to justify imperialism and genocide. US propagandists can stfu.
Of course they can. Somalia literally has no authority there.
US Intelligence Propagandists
You’re forgetting New Zealand haha.
