That’s not what “lock it down” means.

What does it mean to you?

Prevent changes. Locking down software project would mean making it closed sourced. Locking down hardware means preventing software/firmware changes.

We meant the same thing then. Nothing prevents Motorola from making changes to GrapheneOS, making it closed source, and blocking software/firmware changes on their phone so that you can’t install the open source original.

Different tense, I’m not using it in the privacy hardened sense.

Like a locked bootloader and bloat.
