@GrapheneOS @corsac @watchfulcitizen What do you mean by verified boot device? For reference, when I boot my Pixel 7 device on which I installed GrapheneOS, the first thing that appears is a message about an alternative OS to the stock OS being installed, before the Google then GrapheneOS logos. Maybe I don't understand it correctly, but from your message it sounds like the first message about a non-stock OS being used shouldn't appear.
[Edit: after doing some research the "Your device ils loading a different operating system" message seems normal.]

@tichodrome_colvert @corsac @watchfulcitizen What we're saying is that it's easy for them to tell if a device runs another OS through the notice shown at boot for verified boot. If it's locked, it even shows a fingerprint usable to identify the OS. They could have used this to figure out many of the devices they think are running GrapheneOS are clearly actually running something else which explains all the weird features they describe not present in it and even incompatible with our features.
