It’s not a federal law right now. It’s CA afaik. So Motorola could sell non-grapheneos phones there (and people could just install later).

That’s great. But sounds like the only phone they going to get is Motorola. And if us gov going to pressure motorola into compliance? Then what?

It’s like 7 different states at varying stages of “passed” and Meta’s lobby is working on more for sure, wouldn’t be surprised if they were also work on a federal version too.

Probably are. I think it still think a federal age verification bill has low likelihood of passing, but I’d say that’s more plausible than an outright ban on GrapheneOS

It’s a nonprofit organisation. They don’t really need to be the default OS in any device, people can install it themselves, which is how most people get GrapheneOS already.

I JUST put together that the moto partnership means “buying a phone loaded with gOS” not “moto is working with gOS to ensure it runs smoothly on their hardware”. I was excited before but that is awesome
