How so?

  • Developers routinely read along with upstream updates that are relevant to them.
  • Google is removing this access.
  • Google is specifically removing access to read along with upstream updates that are relevant to the developers of GrapheneOS.

At minimum, this will slow down GrapheneOS releases and increase bugs in GrapheneOS.

At worst this could cause a new malicious anti-privacy "feature" to ship with GrapheneOS because there's no time to analyze to discover and remove it.

It's almost like Google hates Privacy or something...
