However, we don’t have a “hardened security” approach, we aren’t developing a phone for pedo(censored) so they can evade justice.

    I have a huge problem with GrapheneOS: they rely too much on Google hardware. That is why I never used Graphene and probably never will.

      Just wondering, do you have a problem in the sense that you don’t want to support Google or more that you’re worried the actual hardware is not safe or trustworthy?

        Google is the exact opposite of privacy and security.

        I find it very dishonest that GrapheneOS was advertising itself as the secure option while tying itself so closely to Google.

          The Pixel phones were the only devices with secure enough hardware to make GrapheneOS viable, that’s why they developed it for them.

          It wasn’t because of some deal with google or anything like that.

            Hardware security guarantees are irrelevant for most people, including myself. A very small segment of the popularion needs them.

            What matters infinitely more is who has access to your data. And Google is one of the worst offenders.

          It only works on Pixel phones because they are the only phones on the market that meet the security requirments.

          Thats why for the future Motorola phones, Motorola will have to design a new phone that will meet those requirements. They can’t just put Graphene OS on an existing Motorola model.
