i should i specified a mobile router. the prices on used/refurbished mobile routers are starting to rival brand new as inventories are starting to vanish because of the ban and i'm getting sick of my chinese phones getting blocked by american carriers.

i'm planning on doing openwrt/tomato/etc. too and the homework i've done so far suggests that supportable routers are a bit older so i suspect that i'll have more leeway when it comes to the ban.

sad to hear you guys are blocking vendors entirely now. huaweis used to have imei spoofing options, and some fuckery to allow regular play store and play services to work (not that you should want it)

dunno how it is now with open fascism and play integrity going on. and i imagine you already explored these options but it doesn't hurt to mention them.
