     you're sure that france can't make google push you over-the-air updates to make your phone spy on you?

     @mk @threat @GrapheneOS I mean...The fact that the Pixel is Google-branded hardware is plenty of reason to think that the phone is backdoored, GrapheneOS or not. Just maybe Graphene makes it a little harder for the smaller fish to get in on the spying action.

     @mk @threat @GrapheneOS It is speculation, as are all things security-related, but when mass-produced devices have been backdoored at the hardware level (see: Intel Management Engine or Cisco backdoors for example), any software layered on top is a placebo or maybe a slightly better spy filter than the stock OS.
     
     It's all been pwned, best policy is to just find a faraday bag that works (none of them do lolol) and only use your phone in emergencies, which is anathema to today's world.

     you have valid point, but it's up to the individual to determine their operating model. i have a use for a pixel+grapheneos myself but it's not what most people would consider a use-case.

     again, i have a certain use-case for my handset. my uplink setup is quite different than most. faraday bag is a nice idea, but as you said none of them really work 100%.
     
     more on this later, i have to write a blog about it.
