I don’t like BigTech. I am interested in good, bullet proof privacy enhancing methods and solutions. I read alot of stuff and try to form my own opinion. And I came to the conclusion, that there are good reasons to distrust the established privacy priests. Edward Snowden recommended GrapheneOS. But he never audited the code and he doesn’t know what the proprietary chips are actually doing. He is an influential person in the privacy community, but his recommendation for GrapheneOS is based on BLIND BELIEF and not technical expertise. There are other reasons why I am sceptical of the Graphene organisation which I have mentioned earlier in this thread. But in the last two months or so, the Graphene devs made claims, which have strengthened my scepticism even more. They hate all privacy/security solutions (including desktop Pcs with Linux, Pinephone, lineage, /e/ etc.) They only recommend two products: Google Pixels and Apple iPhones. Just think about it: GOOGLE AND APPLE. The devs of the supposed most private and secure phone OS recommend exclusively Google and Apple products. And this is what privacy minded people should believe? This is why I think, this is just like these chinese “experts” who say, you should use Huawei for privacy and security reasons. Maybe this isn’t all about privacy and security. Maybe its all about geopolitics in the end.
