It had been in the works for a while, but now it has formally been adopted. From the article:

The regulation provides that by 2027 portable batteries incorporated into appliances should be removable and replaceable by the end-user, leaving sufficient time for operators to adapt the design of their products to this requirement.

        Yes because Google totally can’t change Safetynet on their end… which is what happened last time I ran a custom ROM, in November 2021.

            You do realize Safetynet is Google’s service, running on their servers, right? If they change how it works in the background, it will break on your phone.

                No, they don’t. And even if they needed to, they can do it without me knowing it. When was the last time Play gave you an update notification, let alone one that contained Play Services?

                    You can’t disable those without breaking GMS. Feel free to try though! And again, there is no guarantee that is what actually breaks Safetynet.

                    Let’s compare this to videogames. You can get banned without an update being pushed to you, because Safetynet is a server side DRM “service”
