    I don’t know why this obvious disinformation has a 95% upvote ratio, but it’s a specific fork made by a guy who presumably sells (mainly) to criminals and the police having found a backdoor into that fork. Has nothing to do with any smear campaign against the entire OS.

    Check your facts people!

      Yes, but it should be noted that the disinformation campaign is originating from the government and confusing users to believe all GrapheneOS is bad and being targeted. Agree that the title of the post is misleading, but it’s probably at least in part due to the governmental misinformation.

      My thoughts exactly. There’s no real article behind that ad.nl link. Then there’s this loosely related link to the GOS mastodon post. And then there’s the broad claim in the title, which, unless OP can provide proper evidence, is entirely made-up bullshit. I use downvotes very sparingly here on Lemmy, but this disinformation piece deserves all the red it gets.
