@projetslibres_podcast@piaille.fr @Framasoft@framapiaf.org @fla@mastodon.social /e/ doesn't keep up with providing standard Android privacy patches and protections. It doesn't provide features comparable to the added privacy protections in GrapheneOS including but not at all limited to Storage Scopes, Contact Scopes, Sensors toggle, per-connection Wi-Fi MAC/DHCP privacy and far more. /e/ has a bunch of default connections to Google services and gives highly privileged access to those. It also bundles other invasive services in the OS.

@projetslibres_podcast@piaille.fr @Framasoft@framapiaf.org @fla@mastodon.social GrapheneOS heavily improves privacy compared to the Android Open Source Project in contrast with /e/ heavily reducing it. GrapheneOS is far ahead of the standard pace for privacy patches instead of behind and we fix many privacy weaknesses ourselves. We've fixed a bunch of Android VPN leaks and many forms of data leaks to apps. Since GrapheneOS is a serious privacy project, we have to put substantial work into security too because privacy depends on it.

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social Second time I try to follow this account, and second time I get a week of bashing against competitors instead of promoting your vision and merits. You even boost those posts. Infinite noise/signal. How unfortunate. Will try again in a couple years.
