GrapheneOS is not a fan of this.
Jeez. They really don't. And, I guess they shouldn't. Their stance is that device certification shouldn't be necessary in the first place which I agree with considering this is not done for computers (don't do this tech bro shitheads).
Grapheneos are also against allowing users root access, which is fine on PCs.
At this point it's like an unwritten rule of the internet that every GrapheneOS account comment chain will eventually regress into cooker conspiracy theories about other privacy ROM projects. And I still have no idea why Micay has started lumping iodé in with them, because I have been following that project closely for many years and no one there gives a shit about GrapheneOS. As in, they literally do not talk about Graphene (or any other projects, for that matter). They never compare themselves to GrapheneOS, on security or anything else. It's the most bizarre, one-sided internet war.
Yeah whatever. They are their own bubble.
They're not wrong though
They are if banks don’t allow their apps to be functional on grapheneos.
Namely,
Having a European version of the Play Integrity which permits people to use insecure products from specific European companies participating in it while disallowing using arbitrary hardware or software is the opposite of a solution. It's more of the same anti-competitive garbage.
Hate to say it but he's probably right.
While I agree with GrapheneOS in this case, the beef between them and murena etc is always kinda funny to me ;D
I appreciate the effort but my banking apps still rely on 2FA through SMS. They aren't interested in implementing a technology that is more secure or even one that is different than what they have already, especially for a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of their user base.
Seriously, this shit should be illegal already
