      Don’t the Brits have very strong defamation laws? Seems like an easy lawsuit to win.

      I mean… GrapheneOS is here to do exactly the opposite of that. Lol. I mean… Fuck Yoti but like ¯\(ツ)/¯

          Are you implying that they put the vulnerability there? What is even your point? As far as I know they were the first ones to have a fix for that issue but apparently that means that they’re inherently insecure. Like seriously, do you even have any idea what you’re talking about???

              You are correct I believe. My understanding was that graphene blocked an api or something like that to address the vulnerability…?

          I see what you’re saying. I’m partial to Graphene but I am picking up what you’re putting down.

          I’m not opposed to old school devices but realistically they’re impractical in today’s world.

            I used to use flip phones. While cheap, too much of the world expects you to have a smartphone.
