I am because I wasn't aware of any issues. I have honestly fallen off from tech news over the past decade. I don't know what sources are good for staying informed with as little bias as possible. I come here and find threads like this and try to sort out the bullshit with Google searches.

As opposed to somebody else's "Trust me bro" keys?

If you aren't building your software from source you have no right to expect any security beyond transport encryption. Signing the APK doesn't mean anything, you just have to trust that signature blindly.

I'll never understand GrapheneOS's autist dev who seems to question everything BUT Google. He seems to focus on technical security but has no interest in privacy. Sandboxing the proprietary Google Play Store is preferable to using a FOSS alternative (either something like Aurora Store to get to the same content, or FDroid for a true alternate set of repos etc) etc. Its really too bad that
