Yeah idk why people are caught up on this. Encryption is good and absolutely fundamentally important to society. And yes, shitty people can use it too, it doesn't make it bad.

Google continues to do everything they can to close android down and force everyone to use their os directly. Imo this is a direct attack on graphene OS and anyone based on aosp. Now for every release developers will have to manually merge basically an unusable mess of changes.
Edit: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/21231-google-will-develop-the-android-os-fully-in-private Might not change anything actually.
Seems like graphene is already merging based on tags vs individual commits. It's also not like google is letting anyone (graphene) merge commits into android.
Iirc the graphene developers have basically given up on up streaming some changes because google doesn't actually want many of the security fixes/ changes graphene devs make. Their faq still says they'll try to upstream stuff, I wonder if this will impact that. https://grapheneos.org/faq#upstream
"incriminating" to be clear here, criticism of a political person should not cause you to be denied entry. That's fucking insane. On the other hand, yes. Everything has to be encrypted, locked, and def have a dummy OS. I'm going to need to set some up.
I mean. There's no such thing as bad advertising, supposedly. I doubt this would violate that statement.
