Oki, Aurora Droid aka A-Droid is now beta ready !
A-Droid is still in its early developement phase, bugs are expected !
As of now A-Droid packs only the basic features ie. Repo Sync, App Downloads, Updates & Search
+ few themes.
More features will be added as per the requirements as the developement cycle goes on.
#How to use A-Droid
1. Adding & Syncing Repo :
By default no repo is synced, you are prompted with an IntroPage where you can selected your required repos, out of a predefined list of popular repos (24 repos), you can always add new repos by scanning QR or Entering the Urls manually. (The Repolists are also available in Settings -> Repository)
2. Authenticity of Repos :
Just longpress on the repo list to view the urls & fingerprints of each repo, will also attach the list of default repos here, as of now the fingerprints are not matched after downloading the repos (WIP)
3. Missing apps & updates :
A-Droid shows only those apps which exists in the repos you have synced, all other apps are filtered.
As of now, only one instance of app is available at a time.
ie. if an app name A is present in repo X & Y, then either X(A) or Y(A) is available, based on the order repos are synced. (Will improve asap)
4. Theme inconsistency
I haven't checked the theme on devices running 5.x & 6.x, if you encounter any issues.
Let me know.
5. Missing icons
The icons of some apps are not mapped correctly in the repo itself, those app icons tent to be blank.
There is no way I can fix or improve it, some have extension issue like Termux has .xml as extension in image url, such issues can be fixed but not all. (Will see if Regex can help).
6. XYZ Repo fails to sync
Not an app issue, some repos have downtime or may be someother issue, like I2P the "index-v1.jar" is inaccesible, such repos fail to sync.
7. Why A-Droid needs camera permissions ?
Its required to scan the QR Code in order to add repo.
# As always, I'm open to suggestions & discussions, feel free ping me.

If you live in California, you can see what Clearview has on you, and ask them to stop - here's one reporter's example
The reporter emailed privacy-requests@clearview.ai and requested the information they had on her, how they got it, and how they used it. She also requested they delete what they had, and then opted out of their future data collections on her.
After 11 days, Clearview asked for a "clear photo" of her, and a government-issued ID. *Of course they did.*
She sent them what they requested, and got a PDF showing all the photos they'd scraped of her from her social media accounts and those of her friends, from 2004 to 2019.

More than 2,200 agencies and companies have tried Clearview, report finds

Ante las noticias en las que se habla de posibles roturas de stock en respiradores comerciales de alta tecnología, hemos creado grupos para gestionar la información y el trabajo sobre material necesario en el tratamiento de la enfermedad
Ojalá ésto no sea necesario, pero si pasa, nos preguntábamos si es alta tecnología lo que se necesita o hay opciones mas sencillas que pudieran fabricarse rápido usando - por ejemplo- impresión 3D. Si eso fuera posible, nos gustaría ayudar en el reto. (Aquí hay expertos sanitarios y en diseño y fabricación en general -y en el mundo DIY si el dispositivo fuera fabricable-)

In view of the news that talk about possible stock breaks in high-tech commercial respirators, we have created groups to manage the information and work on material needed in the treatment of the disease.
Hopefully this is not necessary, but if it happens, we wondered if high technology is what is needed or are there simpler options that could be manufactured quickly using - for example - 3D printing. If that were possible, we would like to help in the challenge. (Here are sanitary and design and manufacturing experts in general - and in the DIY world if the device was fabricable-)

How to De-Google – #SolutionsWatch
Remember when Google was just a search engine? In the age of Gmail and Google Drive and Google Maps and GooTube and Google phones, it’s truly unsettling to think how much of the average person’s online activity is now directly feeding the Google data behemoth. Today on #SolutionsWatch, James talks to Rob Braxman (The Internet Privacy Guy) about how to de-Google, and why protecting your privacy online is so important.

Since August 2018 I have run a social network site called Friend Camp for about 50 of my friends. I think Friend Camp is a really nice place, and my friends seem to agree that it has enriched our lives. I'd like to see more places like Friend Camp on the internet, and this document is my attempt to provide some practical guidance as to how you might run a social network site like this.
