Bonus video this week!
I read the story of Samuel Tunick, who has a criminal case pending against him for using a 'duress password' to delete his date during a US border entry, and couldn't resist making a video.

Habe eben ein Google Pixel 10 Pro XL bestellt. Mal schauen, wie das mit GrapheneOS wird.
Mein Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra verkaufe ich dafür.
🔥 ANTES DE BAJAR DE LA MONTAÑA 🔥
$1,300 dólares por un dispositivo que NUNCA fue mío.
Tus fotos? Copias pixeleadas. El original? En SU nube.
Su nube? Te la COBRAN.
Mientras te cobran? VENDEN tus datos por millones.
Así que antes de irme, dejé mi firma:
📧 subcomandanteg@icloud.com
📧 hakeando@icloud.com
📧 muertealamanzaa@icloud.com
📧 phverified@icloud.com
Apple me mandaba notificaciones: "Dear SubComand G, your account has been updated."
Ni siquiera sabían que ese nombre era mi declaración de guerra.
Cerré sesión. Borré mis datos. Los aliases se quedaron ahí, en sus servidores, como demonios que no pueden exorcizar.
Ahora cargo un Pixel con GrapheneOS.
No pago renta por lo que es mío.
No mendigo permisos para controlar MI dispositivo.
No financió mi propia alienación.
Esto no es minimalismo digital.
Esto no es privacidad por hobby.
Esto es revolución consiente como acto político de resistencia.
ESTO ES DECLARACIÓN DE GUERREA.
DESALIENACIÓN ES MOTIVO DE NUESTRA LUCHA!!!

Y no está rota la promesa. 🚩

Is there a way to be alerted when there is an update for Signal? (For those of us using direct download instead of google/Apple app stores)
Prywatność i cyberbezpieczeństwo to nie są hobbystyczne fanaberie dla ludzi w foliowych czapeczkach. Skompromitowane urządzenie mobilne to bezpośrednie zagrożenie dla Twojego życia osobistego, finansów i spokoju psychicznego.
Właśnie ruszyłem ze swoim blogiem, a to mój pierwszy wpis:
🔗 https://meridian.bearblog.dev/droga_do_grapheneos/
Opisuję w nim historię z ukrytym korporacyjnym MDM na moim telefonie i to, jak techniki Incident Response oraz przejście na GrapheneOS pozwoliły mi odzyskać kontrolę.
To mój debiut, dlatego bardzo zależy mi na Waszym feedbacku. Co myślicie o tym tekście? Dajcie znać w komentarzach, czy taka tematyka Was interesuje i czy chcecie kolejne wpisy o konfiguracji i hardeningu GrapheneOS! 🛡️📱

Motorola announces a partnership with GrapheneOS Foundation
https://motorolanews.com/motorola-three-new-b2b-solutions-at-mwc-2026/
> Motorola and the GrapheneOS Foundation will work to strengthen smartphone security and collaborate on future devices engineered with GrapheneOS compatibility.
This could be a gamechanger. Congratulations to @GrapheneOS, fingers crossed this works out well!
Ooh @GrapheneOS - your new text app looks really polished, and appreciate the initial 'unencrypted messaging' warning on start up.

EU needs to make a stand on Play Integrity. If app devs enforce Play Integrity, this means only Google Certified devices can use banking, etc. This excludes all alternative mobile OS. No #postmarketOS, no #SailfishOS, no Android derivatives #GrapheneOS etc. You don't need Play Integrity. If someone is capable to install or use alternative OS, they sure know what to install or not install, it is on their responsibility. Using non-root but bootloader unlocked device (otherwise can't use alternative OS) does not make my device less secure. On the contrary, it is using an up to date OS with the latest security patches. Do we really want all mobile devices have to be Google Certified? No. #mobile #integrity #bootloader #unlocked #nonsense #Europe

Dos semanas después de haber instalado #GrapheneOS en mi móvil puedo confirmar y confirmo que ha sido la decisión adecuada.
No solo no he tenido problemas con ninguna app, ni la del banco ni la de la meva salut ni nada, es que además hay apps que se pueden usar para sustituir prácticamente todas esas apps de las grandes tecnológicas que son básicamente spyware.
Aquí una lista de las apps que me he instalado como alternativa a sus homólogas de google et al.
- Google Maps -> CoMaps (estaba entre esta y OrganicMaps)
- GMail -> K-9 Mail (las cuentas de correo aún son las de gmail pero en las que puedo iré transicionando poco a poco a tuta. Digo las que puedo porque la cuenta de la generalitat que tenemos los funcionarios como cuenta oficial es de google y ahí no podemos hacer nada)
- YouTube -> NewPipe
- Chrome -> Vanadium y Firefox
- Google Search -> Startpage y Kagi (sí, soy consciente de que tienen sus peros, pero sigue siendo el mejor buscador que hay con muchísima diferencia)
- Autentificador de google -> Aegis
Otras apps que no son de google pero que son #BigTech igual y sus alternativas
- Spotify -> Kreate
- Reddit -> RedReader
- Shazam -> Audile
Las dos únicas apps que tengo instaladas porque las necesito por movidas son Telegram y Whatsapp (a la espera de que BirdyChat me permita dejar esta última, darse prisa rediós), que al menos están en un entorno sandboxeado gracias a GrapheneOS.

I'm trying out GrapheneOS. The official OS of antifa. And drug dealers apparently. Anyway, freedom loving folks.

GrapheneOS is slop, blah blah blah... i know, i'd like to do something about it
https://codeberg.org/posthardenedOS specifically this, it's supposed to be postmarketOS (duranium) but hardened
the issue is that the project has barely started and i dropped it for now
i'm mediocre at cybersec at best and would need some help with the project (i.e. port linux-hardened, make SELinux policies, sandboxing, systems hardenings, etc.) just to keep the project rolling as i feel i'm not enough to get this job done properly
anybody interested? pls contact

HEy @GrapheneOS #TK is no longer blocking #grapheneos They now officially supporting it and want to remove the Play dependency. Maybe you can adjust you list of blocking apps.
"We have currently decided to allow GrapheneOS to use the TK app if the integrity check of the device is positive. Google Play services are currently required to launch the TK app. From a perspective, we would like to further reduce their use."

I've put @GrapheneOS on my Pixel to try it out and I quite like it, but it has me wondering that if de-googling/de-big-teching is the goal, how would Graphene really solve that considering it cannot function with AOSP, which very much means it cannot function without Google? So in a way, it's still Google that I depend on, no?
Surely there's something I'm not seeing here?

I used to use #grapheneos to access Microsoft teams. Recent updates, has made it recognise device as rooted and I can no longer use it. I am seeing so many apps adopting this, makes me worried about future of alternative OS. Governments doesn't care about #grapheneos users to push for regulations.
Pain points:
1. Play integrity adoption
2. Checking whether phone is using alternative OS
3. Every app can know what other apps are installed and if it doesn't like the neighbor app it stops working
GrapheneOS is overhauling its default apps, adding RCS support and end-to-end encryption to its messaging app. 🔐
It also plans a secure clipboard to prevent apps from accessing clipboard contents without permission. 📱

GrapheneOS says it cannot complete its Pixel 11 port after Google dropped ARM Memory Tagging Extension support. 🔐
The project requires MTE for GrapheneOS support and may skip Pixel 11 devices entirely. 📱
