Android 15
Did they seriously remove that on 16? Did you search for any similar terms in the settings? Maybe its a developer option now. Google always does the dumbest shit man.
If you cant fully disable all usb devices then thats a problem tho, because it would only protect you if the device is locked.
They also seem to be bundling this new Advanced Protection Mode with bad features like the disabling of non google app sources and AI call transcription to do “scam detection”

Yeah, searched around in the settings and in developer options for a bit and didn’t see anything that looked like it.
How does it behave for you then? Does it accept new devices while locked?
Looks like there is a new system: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-cgDR4ORvY
