Official statement from @Mer__edith: the new EU chat controls proposal for mass scanning is the same old surveillance with new branding.
Whether you call it a backdoor, a front door, or “upload moderation” it undermines encryption & creates significant vulnerabilities.
@david_chisnall @signalapp @Mer__edith oh, they'll come via the app stores first. Then OS that allow side loading. Then OS that allow unsigned apps. Then compilers.

This. I have an OG Droid with a cross-compiled userland that runs an older gcc. I can not compile large programs though due to lack of ram.
But, useful for testing, especially to learn configure cache settings to use for the cross-compiler.
Cross-compiling is not for the faint of heart because configure will get things wrong very often.
