Mastodawn

Android provides a standard hardware attestation system with support for alternate operating systems via allowing their verified boot key fingerprints. It's mainly used with Google's root of trust and remote key provisioning service but the API supports alternative roots of trust.

Volla's Unified Attestation is fully built on Android's hardware attestation API. It solely exists to create a centralized authority and service determining what's allowed under their control.

@GrapheneOS Off topic: Have you considered raising the character limit on grapheneos.social?

@31113 It was considered, but ultimately decided against, since Mastodon doesn't natively offer an option to change the character limit, so it would require manually patching the code. https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/115463582032498642

@[email protected] @[email protected] There isn't even build configuration to increase Mastodon's character limit. It requires changing it in multiple places in the code. We're not using a patched fork of Mastodon like infosec.exchange but rather the official upstream releases. We would have to deal with it ourselves as we don't want to use a fork.
