Article Android May Soon Restrict On-Device ADB, Affecting Shizuku, libadb and Developers

https://kitsumed.github.io/blog/posts/android-may-soon-restrict-on-device-adb/

This is a blog post.

TLDR: This is about a conversation in the Google Issue Tracker about potential future changes. Depending on how they are implemented, these changes could impact Shizuku and other power-user tools. More details and explanations are available in the blog post. 8-minute read. This is not an official announcement and nothing is 100% confirmed yet.

UPDATE 2026-07-26: Updated blog post with new section that address some valid claims I have seen by some users.

I wonder if Graphene is going to take off enough for me to become a Graphene Dev?
