Yeah and kitchen knife can be used as a weapon. So, the governments should ban kitchen knives.

Annoying to, once again, see GrapheneOS incorrectly referred to as a custom ROM, but fair enough.

dc32f0cfe84def651e0e As I expected, a lot of the comments on the YouTube video are misinformation nonsense, but on Odysee, which has far fewer comments, almost all the comments are bullshit.

Then honestly, I'm not saying the video isn't good, the information seemed correct except for the term “ROM”, but I prefer when GrapheneOS is presented for its technical merits for general use rather than for a device presented to thwart law enforcement and Forensics analysis (and GOS protects itself well against that), because the ignorant lambda will probably think it was specifically designed for this and nothing else.

Dumdum This term seems to have been used to designate mobile operating systems that users have been installing themselves for too long.

Ideally, GrapheneOS should be introduced for its overall security and privacy strengths, That said, there are situations where it makes sense to highlight those capabilities, especially when you’ve got people pushing the whole “resistance is futile” narrative, "like there’s no point in even trying to protect your data because they (LEA) and other entities, can get in no matter what."

locked Yes, you're right, and it's appropriate to do so after these attacks by the Catalan forces of law and order. I think it's then up to us to present the project with its technical merits for general use by newcomers to our community who are willing to learn more in good faith.

JW10233 This is the same old unreasonable argument: Privacy friendly services are "bad" because they are used by criminals.

Yes, this is a most loved mainstream manipulation if someone would like to protect his privacy, it automatically means he should be a criminal.

I always use a counterargument like "Toilet paper should be banned worldwide because it is heavily used by criminals" :))))

Xtreix

Grapi You can also reply that privacy isn't about having something to hide but about having something to protect, for example, from unwanted attackers or to mitigate risks when data leaks, an IRL example being burglars.

I find that the team responds well and is reactive.

There are so many articles that it is difficult to answer each one individually in a short period. However, serious news outlets are obliged to offer a right of reply to who have been criticised.

New article from Qndroidauthority, published a few hours ago and offering a different perspective:

Solid article, although slight adjustments could probably be made:

"GrapheneOS’ sandboxing extends to invasive apps" should be GrapheneOS extends Android sandboxing.
"GrapheneOS can forward notifications to the primary user profile" should be currently active user profile.

Guilt by association is a common fallacy that shouldn't be used in this day and age and in hands of law enforcement becomes especially unfair and dangerous.
