Been a long time since I've been to a hotel/motel with a rj45 port.

Personally, what I do is bring a burner and use that to join the network / go through the captive portal. Then I plug in my travel router which spoofs the burner's mac address and automatically connects to my VPN. My devices then connect to that router.

Second, for $10 who the fuck wont get the vaccine? And isnt that their problem?

You could pay me to take it and I wouldn't, at least not early on. See how many people it injures first. Still won't know any long term effects for years.

This will be the real test of how open Android really is.

If a manufacturer as big as Huawei cannot sell Android phones without Google's blessing, then Android is it just Google's walled garden.

Android is open source, however Google Services and Play Store are not. They are proprietary. This is why if you flash something like LineageOS you get a very usable system but there's no play store. Apps that depend on Google Services don't work unless you flash something like OpenGapps which add the proprietary apps and services.

There is an open source project called microG that's implementing the proprietary services and there are LineageOS builds that include it. Aurora Store gives access to Play Store without actually using google.
