The foundation behind the ultra-secure Android-based OS is speaking out after an activist was indicted for using a ‘duress password’ to prevent federal agents from searching his phone.

Some people simply can’t afford to buy an extra phone, not even a used one. And some people don’t even have a Pixel option in their market.
But if you think money and phones simply grow out of trees in all of the places of the world that the US has fucked, maybe it’s you who needs your head examined.
Unfortunately Graphene has a reason for this, Pixels are (for now) the only phones with the HW security requirements list Graphene has, they’re just the most secure (HW wise) phones on the market.
They also share your sentiment, but realistically they have to work with what exists, not what is fantasy. They are taking steps with Moto to get off of that dependency however and that phone should be just as secure (where their current ones lack something on the list.)
If you just want to get away from google, try LineageOS, if you need it to be secure then you’re just as stuck as Graphene is, I’m afraid.
