Senior security writer uses adb shell command he doesn’t understand to do something to a package he doesn’t know is or isn’t on his phone.
Uh. OK.
Anyway.
I have 2 devices one on android 13 and one on grapheneos. Neither has Gemini.
To check for Gemini:
adb shell pm list packages bard
and since I don’t know if it’s a regular apk or not:
adb shell pm list packages --apex-only bard
To be super sure, I also checked using shell commands device_config list and getprop, and grep for strings including: gemini, bard, smart, ai, model, and personal(ize/ation)
eg adb shell device_config list | grep --color -i smart
