Does that work, though? It’s just a modified AOSP, so it might have the same issues as vanilla android.

In the past, no, there have been remote exploits done through BOINC. But I haven’t been an active participant in over a decade, so I don’t know what their security is like now.

Development of Linux on mobile will ramp up

In the past I had been partial to Icelandic hosts because they’re not in the 14 eyes, but they’re still European so there’s that to consider. There’s also likely good hosts in Russia, China, etc. Other than those two countries, it would probably be a good idea to look for hosts based out of the global south, and they’d probably need servers in several countries to provide the traffic balancing large clouds offer. I haven’t looked recently, but I know Panama used to have a lot of hosts. That’s probably a good place to start.

If enough of us do it, absolutely

That’s an awesome step; I cut Amazon out of my life several years ago and haven’t looked back. And I sincerely applaud you for providing this challenge. As for getting rid of AWS, I haven’t found a way. I was actually hoping that’s what you were going to include. I found in my own attempts a few years ago that getting rid of AWS pretty much disables the Internet for you. I haven’t tried again recently, but I assume that it has only gotten worse. Same with Google and Microsoft clouds.

Does your de-amazon challenge include de-aws? If so, that’s going to be tough. You would have to be extremely disciplined. If it’s just about not buying from Amazon, that’s definitely doable.
