  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.

        Any phone manufacturer can do it and they don’t need any special deals with GrapheneOS for that. GrapheneOS would definitely not support Motorola making some secret changes to the OS before installing it so this news is the complete opposite of such situation.

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