Graphene doesn’t have an advantage over other options if it doesn’t get newest security patches so support is mandatory.

Old second hand Pixels are pretty cheap but they don’t receive Graphene updates for very long.

So only the half of the US that buys iPhone’s is rich?

I agree with this. However the very latest Pixels (with the stock ROM) might be a bit more invasive than the phones by an OEM like Motorola or Nokia.

Not really. A smartphone with a privacy-respecting OS and E2EE communication apps only is more secure. Though you can argue that it’s not really a phone if you don’t use the soter service.

That’s true but absolutely impossible to achieve.

No matter which model is adopted, the prime minister has said privacy protections will be introduced to cover any data people end up providing.

Sure. Now stop thinking of ridiculous legal aspects and fight for your privacy.

Never heard of it.

I think it’s the other way around, mister/miss.
