So, what exactly are the hardware security features that only Google Pixels have? And how come they survived the transition from Qualcomm SoCs to Google Tensor?
this is not the grapheneos faq
>>106523014I read the FAQ, didn't answer my question. It says what features they need, not which ones other phones lack (and half of them are standard for ARMv9 chips)
I think the main thing is that Pixels are one of the few mainstream phones that (for now) allow you to install a custom ROM and relock the bootloader. It all comes down to hardware attestation:https://grapheneos.org/articles/attestation-compatibility-guideThe world GrapheneOS wants to live in is one where they deploy a ROM which is verified to be secure and to not provide root to the users so that app developers can be confident that users aren't spoofing their location in Pokemon go or taking screenshots of Snapchats or whatever they're worried about. The compromise is that even without root GrapheneOS does return much more control to the user via sandboxing etc. We don't live in this world though; currently any device attestation is inexorably linked to Google.Notably GrapheneOS isn't advocating for the attitude that "this is the user's device, they should have root and be able to do whatever the fuck they want", they're merely saying that because they've gone to all this work to make their ROM secure it should be considered as such by app developers.
OP confirmed illiterate retard.
>>106522992>de-Googled Android OS>only runs on Google hardware
BRAAAAAAAP
>>106523194They used to support a couple of other phones until they were paid off.
>unlockable bootloaderleaves only Pixel, Sony and Fairphone>relockable bootloaderleaves only Pixel and Fairphone>secure element so you can't just spam all possible PIN codes to unlockleaves only Pixel
>>106522992>how come they survived the transitionjust wait.but serious, its because they provided device trees and driver source, which they wont do anymore for pixel 10
>>106522992LMAO look at this! Daniel Micay has created an alt account! Look at his writing style and his obsession with fighting "misinformation"! It is him!https://social.tchncs.de/@tranquil_cassowary@infosec.exchange

>>106523561Oh look a faggot who glows in the dark trying to vilify an autistic jewish kid who does nothing but codes and dunks on retards online.Why you so mad at the kike for? Because he's helping society while you are jerking your tiny penis off all day?Love how everyone calls strcat schizo but he is legitimately being gangstalked online by a bunch of glowie faggots. That's how you know he does good work and you can trust GrapheneOS.Fuck the feds, fuck the glowies.

>>106524034But the Titan M2 was only introduced with the Pixel 6 and GrapheneOS was running on the Pixel 4. Samsung has the comparable Knox chip as well.
