> Using adb is a feature only in developer mode, plugged into SDK tools. I'm aware. The difficulty in this process would act as a filter ensuring only powerusers can do it. It would certainly not be ideal to have to do this just to use Termux, but if Google wants to eventually enforce W^X exec(), it would be better than nothing. I'm honestly curious as to what the security implications of allowing exec() in writable directories really is. For example, GrapheneOS' top priority is security and it hardens the Android sandbox even beyond AOSP, and yet it still supports Termux (and I doubt its users would accept if it dropped support for this, even if in exchange for a little extra security). If anyone knows about this, I would appreciate your input.
