  • Absolutely that’s an issue. But we’re not talking about that here. We are talking about a base os from where we can progress. I don’t care much for Google phones, even though I must admit they are nice phones. Google can not un-opensource AOSP. They can, to a certain extend, stop open sourcing changes, but that’s about it. Doesn’t mean we need to follow their os. Also doesn’t mean we can’t, slowly but surely, develop Android to be more of a Sandbox ontop of a newer Linux kernel than it is right now. Utopian, I know, but if Google stops AOSP developmentz what would we rather do?









  • Not necessarily. It would provide an attack vectore for sure, that being the data connection between profiles, but if it is implemented in a controllable manner (See qubes os), it’s fine. The only issue I see with GrapheneOS in this scenario is: There is no uncompromised host for verification, so I don’t really know myself how something safe could be implemented, however I would also think devs don’t really want to, since there are ways which OP has already described some of.
