Brazil's authoritarian age verification law became active this month. It won't be implemented by GrapheneOS. Complying would require integrating a mandatory process for each user where a third party service checks government identification and confirms a match using the camera.
@GrapheneOS >Complying would require integrating a mandatory process for each user where a third party service checks government identification and confirms a match using the camera.
that's sick. this is the absolute break of any privacy and this should be avoided by all software developers. -

@GrapheneOS @lxo
looks llike Brasilian government requirements to software are much worse than we expected.
this is not just a breaking privacy for some third-party service, it's deanonimizing and tracking users by whatever sites and servers in an unknown circle. -
There aren't yet devices supporting GrapheneOS directly sold in South America. Brazil in particular has unusually high import duties/taxes which add up to around 100%. This has resulted in us not having a lot of users there but our Motorola partnership will start changing this.
@GrapheneOS Really? Will you be selling out-of-the-box grapheneOS devices in Brazil?
That's where i live!

@GrapheneOS What about instead of responding to the age bracket by providing a age bracket, you could provide back string that just says ñao ñao amigao?

@GrapheneOS why are you so based?

@GrapheneOS looks like Brazil, with Robert DeNiro, is about to become a documentary

@richardisaguyyyy We want to do that but the age verification law is going to prevent devices being sold with GrapheneOS in Brazil. It will be very easy to install it on future Motorola devices sold in Brazil via our web installer though. It's much easier and safer than doing something like installing Windows on a desktop.

@GrapheneOS That's so awesome! May i ask, will you support existing motorola devices that are rootable as well? For instance i own a moto edge 20

@271b2c6edd87612e685308ff118481894dd8f2d546a091b22e3660b043378472 There will very likely be Motorola phones sold in Brazil where GrapheneOS can be installed. It's already not legal to sell phones with it preinstalled after this law came into effect on March 17, although Apple and Google haven't finished implementing it themselves so they aren't in compliance either.

People are going to have their personal info leaked by third party age verification services due to these laws. Children are going to be harmed by apps and websites changing their behavior to exploit them. It isn't going to stop minors finding pornography if they want to find it.

@GrapheneOS this. Meta is lobbying for this heavily and they have systematically put minors in harm's way and exploited them for profit for years and they aren't gonna stop. they only want this to more effectively and thoroughly exploit people. they wouldn't spend large sums on this unless they thought it would serve them, not their users.

Another possible scenario: Those over 18 and playing by the rules by doing the age verification are labeled as porn addicts with online addiction. Depending on how long they are on those site(s) and what fetish is normal or not. Here is the therapy and institutions we recommend. Future data leaks from the outsourced companies for the age verification are top info for data brokers to get big $$$.
This "verification" works on both sides.

@diametraldaneben Lenovo is a Chinese company based in Hong Kong.
We're expanding device support to one of the most widely available brands of devices while keeping all of our security standards intact.
It's not our fault that most Android OEMs aren't interested in improving their devices to meet our security requirements with better updates, better hardware/firmware security and adding more of the standardized hardware-based security features.
Why exactly are you angry with us?

@GrapheneOS @richardisaguyyyy is it a done deal that the new OEM will be Motorola?

@cornflakes4dinner @richardisaguyyyy Motorola officially has a long term partnership with us. They're actively working on GrapheneOS support and meeting all of our requirements. The aim is to have support on devices launched in 2027 and things are proceeding towards it. They also want to use our code within their OS to improve it but that's a separate thing from GrapheneOS and interests their business users rather than being what our users are interested in.

@richardisaguyyyy @GrapheneOS No. Existing Motorola devices don't fulfill Graphene's hardware requirements
