@a53bdb @kkarhan @GrapheneOS @tails Until we have "End-User verifiable free integrated circuits", all these tremendos efforts of GrapheneOS devs can be annihilated by just a single hardware backdoor in any IC composing those smartphones. And here I ask you the question : Will hackers start worrying about empowering end-users with the power to verify their ICs one day ?Ok, it's a lot of organizational work.But it is existential !

Ptrp artículo sobre el acuerdo de colaboración entre Morotola y GrapheneOS. No aporta mucho más de lo que ya se sabe, pero no está mal difundirlo. El primer gran fabricante que ofrecerá (o permitirá instalar) un sitema operativo más allá de Google y Apple. Será posiblemente un paso pequeño, pero importante en conseguir teléfonos más allá de las dos American Big Tech:https://www.infobae.com/america/agencias/2026/03/03/grapheneos-rompe-su-exclusividad-con-pixel-para-llegar-a-los-dispositivos-de-motorola/#grapheneos #degoogle #privacidad #motorola #privacy #nogafam

@libreovergratis @GrapheneOS Yes of course. It's worth noting that this partnership "only" entails the mutual interest in bringing secure hardware onto the market, i.e. we remain an independent entity and carry on as usual.

@MrGR Kurz:GrapheneOS war Pixel‑exklusiv, weil nur Pixel die Sicherheits‑ und Update‑Standards erfüllten; Motorola kommt jetzt dazu, weil sie sich bereit erklärt haben, neue Geräte mit diesen Standards zu bauen. Fazit:Statt einem gibt es jetzt zwei Hersteller die Geräte bauen die für graphenos in Frage kommen

@chewie Good point

@daumenlutscher @linuxnews Gehört Motorola nicht inzwischen Lenovo und kommt daher aus China?

GrapheneOS & Motorola have officially announced their partnership. What does this mean for the future? #Motorola #GrapheneOS #Android #FYP #PrivacyGuides

@thomIch werde das weiter beobachten

@Andromxda @NetscapeNavigator Do you have any reference to Motorola openly saying they're increasing their phones' firmware updates to 7 years? Motorola currently pays Qualcomm for 3 years of updates and only maintains drivers for 3 years. This isn't a question of whether Graphene wants to do it or not; it's whether Graphene negotiated this as a requirement for Motorola. I haven't seen any information from Motorola itself confirming it.

@von I’m not that familiar with MacOS but won’t 26 (Tahoe) be supported for quite a while?No reason to go Linux when MacOS 27 releases, unless you just want to go Linux in general. Which, hey, fair enough.When my ipad dies I’m just going to replace it under applecare, as it’s the only device I’ve kept monthly applecare on. It’s not a waste of money - they’ve already had to replace it once. Applecare is the best decision I’ve ever made for this tablet.

@kstrlworks better than nothing, no? I mean, what's the alternative? 1) keep using Pixels only 2) use a still immature Linux mobile OS 3) embrace enshittification.It's not that I don't agree, mind you, but at this point any good news is good news IMHO.

@InfoseepageDidn't Google buy Motorola anyway a few years back?@cryptgoat

@kuketzblog ich hätte da mal eine Laienfrage: Es wird ja aktuell davor gewarnt, dass das „Android Developer Verification program“ der Sargnagel für F-Droid ist. Gilt dass dann auch für alternative Roms wie GrapheneOS, oder können die das umgehen?

@EinBildvoneinemMann @heiseonline In Bezug auf Features in Richtung Abhärtung lt GrapheneOS sind sie eben genau das.

@thenewoil the main picture is slop with a completely wrong GrapheneOS logo, that doesn't inspire the slightest bit of confidence in the veracity of the article...
