This reminds me of the conflict between Graphene OS’s Dev and Louis Rossmann, and now Rossmann had to uninstall Graphene OS because he fears of the Dev injecting malware.
Edit: Video link, same one as the one in the replies below:
How right to repair is good for the consumer, complete lie. Daddy Tim Cook is keeping me safe with my glued in phone battery, anti-replacement display chip, Apple repair program required NDA, etc. He also bullies manufacturers into cutting off all direct-to-consumer sales of components, so that no nasty unsafe display ends up in my device. Thanks Tim, and fuck Louis! (obvious /s)
As someone who uses GrapheneOS, and likes Louis Rossman, this is very concerning. Could you link me to some info on this?
Hey don’t let this scare you away from GrapheneOS as Louis states he doesn’t know how this works and cannot trust the code.
You cannot be specifically targeted as a user of GrapheneOS with backdoors from the project. The entire user base would need to be targeted and this project has to many eyes on it to not be noticed by now.

Holy shit, that is so unhinged. Multiple accounts of, what seem to me like, paranoid delusions from the GrapheneOS dev. As a user this is concerning, and I will keep an eye on it going forwadd.
