Yes. But the dev lockout stuff that Google is forcing will apply to all three. As I understand it.

It works through the Google play services afaik so it won't.

Thanks.

It seems that

The rule only kicks in on devices that come loaded with Google's own apps and services, known as Google Mobile Services or GMS.

That said, LineageOS flagged one gap worth watching which is if someone sideloads a third-party Google Apps package onto their device, that package could theoretically include the verification system bundled in

I wonder of we'll see more banking (and other) apps lockout ROMs that don't have GMS, or bundle it in when installed on something like gOS.
