TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

    Wow, I legit just ordered a used pixel yesterday to give graphene a try lol. Uncanny timing!

    Anyhow, that’s great news! I can really see the EU sinking its teeth into this if nothing else.

      I would totally buy a Pixel too but apparently most Pixels here are black market and the IMEIs are banned so I don’t wanna risk getting one that can’t connect to cell networks

        Oof that’s scary. Good thing I have a decent enough return window to at least make sure stuff like that isn’t the case, at least.
