@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social
The reasoning of this project sounds like "We built a FOSS Torment Nexus alternative because the current Torment Nexus is controlled by one company". -
@GrapheneOS
Okay, you obviously don't want to answer my question objectively. That's unfortunate, because it makes you seem untrustworthy.
Or are you just a chatbot anyway? -
@GrapheneOS @MrGR oh damn, sorry i didn't know that, sounds like louis is kinda gaslighting people. Thanks for your clarification, i'll have a look on those kiwifarms posts and investigate more. Hearing that it harmed your project is very sad and i hope for you and your team that it'll get better soon. All that stuff from others also sounds like someone doesn't like that you are enabling phones to be nearly unhackable and as safe and privacy friendly as possible.
Keep up the great work! -
@GrapheneOS
No, you haven't. You obviously haven't even read my question.
Once again: yes, they should. But what is to be done if the don't? That was my question.
As someone who has been using GrapheneOS for many years and supports the project with a monthly donation, I would have expected a factual question to be answered factually. Instead, you repeat political demands that I share, but which do not answer my question. This is unfortunate and makes you appear untrustworthy. -
Play Integrity API should be regulated out of existence rather than making another system where companies permit their own products while disallowing others. It shouldn't be legal when Google does it and it shouldn't be legal when Volla and Murena do it either. This is wrong.
@GrapheneOS are you talking with policymakers about this?

@GrapheneOS
It's very unfortunate that I'm obviously only reaching an arrogant chat bot here. I had hoped to get in touch with the creators of GrapheneOS. -
@GrapheneOS @MrGR As the open source community we should stand together and make this world a better place with that what we can do and not spread hate on such forums like they do. But some people need to dump their frustrations on people which did some small thing wrong like being angry on the people who tried to steal their project and tried to sue them.
What counts for me is what you gave the world and that is the only truly safe mobile operating system, not what some dev said in anger. -

@GrapheneOS
Is this (unified attestation) an analog of whatever it is that google does in apps that ends up with things like banking apps needing google services? Or am I thinking of something completely different? -
Is it me or grapheneos is only supporters on google pixel models ?
If yes why should we give money to google ?@Paul_stilgar @GrapheneOS @dristor If you want any phone, go buy any phone. You can't put any mobile OS on any smart phone.
Why does the semiconductor industry rely on ASML? Because they have the best most suitable lithography.
Mobile security relies on the latest hardware security, firmware security, update support. Many manufacturers have mediocre standards in keeping up. Pixels unfortunately have been the only phones that meet GOS requirements. Motorola is working to on some future devices.

@GrapheneOS sounds like they are just trying to ride the wave of Europe trying to break free of their reliance on american digital companies, which I completely agree, to grab power for themselves, which is still shitty and nothing to celebrate.
Thankfully my bank's app still works fine with gos and they also allow full web access anyway
@eskuero @GrapheneOS would I be wrong to say that this alternative attestation would still preferable to Play Store Integrity? Perhaps there is some background to the people behind it that I am missing.
-
@GrapheneOS @eskuero oh, well of course! Has UAT indicated that they would, or is the concern more an expectation that they would follow in Google's footsteps and reject "unofficial" Android versions?
-
@GrapheneOS aber dann würde es ja ausreichen, wenn ihr diese Falschinformationen über euer eigenes Betriebssystem berichtigt. Statt dessen kritisiert ihr hier pausenlos andere Betriebssysteme. Ich halte eure Öffentlichkeitsarbeit für fatal, so sehr ich GraphenOS schätze und bereits seit Jahren nutze.

@GrapheneOS Ich verstehe euren Krieg gegen andere Custom-ROMs nicht. Eure eigentlichen Gegner sind doch die proprietären Betriebssysteme von Apple und Google, nicht andere Betriebssysteme, die von einer ganz kleinen Minderheit genutzt werden.
-
@GrapheneOS Ich hätte gerne mal Quellen, wo andere Custom-Rom negativ über GrapheneOS schreiben. Bislang lese ich nur, was ihr über andere Betriebsysteme wie Volla, murena, lineageos Negatives schreibt.

@MrGR Daran bin ich auch interessiert. @GrapheneOS

There's no legitimate purpose for either Play Integrity or Unified Attestation to exist. Both will inherently fail to uphold even basic security standards since otherwise their own products wouldn't be allowed. Root-based attestation is also inherently not a secure approach.
@GrapheneOS I would like to say Thank You! GrapheneOS devs for giving us the best Privacy and Security on a phone and also a LOT of Peace of Mind for the privacy concious people.
Also been using it for a month now and I pretty much like it even if I had to get a Pixel for it, it was worth it! -

@GrapheneOS
Is there any European citizen initiative to ban this kind of things? Can you help writing one? I would sign it -
Murena and iodé are extremely hostile towards GrapheneOS. They've spent years misleading people about it with inaccurate claims to promote their insecure products. We'll never work with them. Volla, Murena and iodé should have no say in which OS people can use on their devices.
@GrapheneOS seeing frequent hostility and drama come out of this account makes me want to switch off of GOS, despite really liking it. It makes me feel uncertain about the sustainability of the project and the character of people behind it. Hopefully the constant drama I am seeing doesn't represent the overall culture of the project. If not, please get someone else to manage the socials!
