Don't buy Exyonos phones. They are full of weird incompatibilities and quirks. I've returned my A52 because once someone sent me a movie from their phone and I couldn't play it because the hardware didn't support some obvious codec.
OLED Display on my Zenbook unglued itself after month of use. They removed the ability to unlock bootloader in their phones (after repeatedly lying about it returning). Some people sued them and won. I won't buy another Asus product.
They do have the choice. It doesn't mean that everyone has to agree with or respect that choice.
They need to decentralize, one possibility is using Radicle
I own recent OLED Zenbook and it's super creaky squeaky, plus, the screen unglued itself from the frame. The build quality isn't very good I'd say.
You can use Ublock Origin in advanced mode, which allows you to block, blacklist/whitelist scripts.
