Including a concern that Google’s Pentagon deal could mean mass surveillance of EU citizens.

Google’s own staff don’t trust them anymore… we shouldn’t either.

    Both Android and IOS are unacceptable. GrapheneOS for me, and hopefully once Motorola releases their “shipped with Graphene” devices, a whole lot more people. Anyone who says anything otherwise is a sucker for marketing.

      I’m worried that with all the legal attempts by governments around the world trying to undermine privacy and encryption and enforce ID verification and total surveillance, Motorola might get cold feet about the deal. There are powerful people in many countries who would love to make GrapheneOS illegal.

        Let’s hope that doesn’t happen. Graphene is BY FAR our best option, by a large margin.

          In the short term, probably. It’s still android though. There’s no technical reason why phones can’t be running actual Linux though, which provides users real freedom.

          It’s not, postmarketOS or even SailfishOS are much better, because they don’t depend on Android,
