I don’t think it matters. ReVanced patches original YouTube so it will use whatever YouTube is using. Even if current YouTube app doesn’t use WebView that’s nothing stopping them from adding it in the future.
If I’m reading article right, Google supposedly “discontinued” the attestation technology in Chrome, because of the shit storm, but looks like they are thinking of adding it to Android and use it to verify the devices and applications are genuine. The YouTube server for example might refuse to serve the video if the application is not genuine.
It would piss me off hopefully the eu covers that under there antitrust specificly with what they are hopefully going to implement with the new thing they are doing with 3rd party app stores but idk we will see.

If they are testing application genuinity im more concerned they might break all the google services hacks etc used by graphene os.
Which would suck.

Why would the EU cover how Google controls who uses Google’s services?

Most people I know who use Graphene still use Google services and backend stuff. Just sand boxed so they have a bit more control.
Personally, I’m still looking for something that isn’t Google or Apple. Haven’t found it yet.
Ive completly killed google excepr for revanced am working on that tho.
And sandboxed is better than nothing gives more control ill take that over no control any day.
I mean they successfully destroyed any possibility to use banking apps in custom roms like LineageOS, with their new Play Integrity https://developer.android.com/google/play/integrity
Maybe there already is or there will be some circumvention, but when i had to do it there was none.
This is a consequence of the security standards banks (and credit card companies) need to follow, not Google doing.
Banking apps work fine on graphene or at least mine does.
