Dutch bank ASN blocks banking app on non-Google Android, including GrapheneOS

The Dutch bank ASN, which markets itself as an idealistic institution, has reportedly blocked its mobile banking app on Android devices that lack Google's services. The restriction reportedly affects custom Android builds such as GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused operating system. The details were documented in a GitHub issue on a banking-apps compatibility report, which was shared and discussed on Hacker News. The article's source material is limited, so the exact scope and timing of the block remain unconfirmed. Commenters on the discussion thread have raised concerns about access for users who avoid Google's ecosystem.
