I wonder how low Google will sink next time.
Respect for the GrapheneOS for pushing through regardless, even if they have to reverse engineer stuff. Can't wait to buy their phone.

Oh, the possibilities are endless and they're just getting started. Besides stopping releases of AOSP completely they could also mandate that any "certified" Android device should not allow bootloader unlocking (albeit OEMs will disallow that anyway)..
Good phrasing. It's certainly not _your_ phone, you're just an untrusted user who is extended the privilege of using it.
Exposing root to userspace does not make you the owner of it, and serves to erode the guarantee that the OS is enforcing the rules you set. The way it is used is a hacky shortcut to achieving functionality that should be written into the OS itself so that the security model can be maintained.
