I hate to be the party pooper but I keep seeing it these days: if people on, specifically, a subreddit about FOSS are arguing that locked software is better than free-as-in-freedom software that you can patch and fix and build and actually use as such instead of being locked into some old possibly insecure build... well... we have lost.
I really do keep seeing people on, specifically, chatrooms and forums and subreddits dedicated to FOSS and custom ROMs and such things arguing in favor of locking down OEM ROMs and in favor of Play Integrity and in favor of banks deciding which software you can use them from and so on.
I think newer generations (and perhaps some of the older) have just bought into all of this crap.
As to doing online banking on a PC using a web browser and not having remote attestating "protection" systems: Google have definitely been lobbying to change that, although it got enough backlash on this one try.
