The claims made about GrapheneOS in this interview are extremely inaccurate. It heavily misrepresents the purpose of GrapheneOS and what we've worked on for years. The claim GrapheneOS is a security project rather than a privacy project is misinformation. Contacts are specifically brought up and yet our Contact Scopes feature is ignored. @fla knows GrapheneOS is a privacy project. He replied to a thread with our response to this misinformation only 4 days ago...

@GrapheneOS Maybe talk to the @Framasoft folks directly; they’re good people. Everyone isn’t out to get you. It’s not doing your reputation any favours to respond to any mention of GrapheneOS that doesn’t recite the technical manual 100% correctly with a sledgehammer. And I say that as someone who has a lot of respect for your project and wants to see GrapheneOS succeed long term.
@aral @Framasoft He directly responded to the thread we published 4 days ago addressing Murena once again claiming the kind of privacy and security hardening work done by GrapheneOS and iPhones is only useful to criminals and spies. In that thread, we directly addressed these repeated inaccurate claims about the purpose, goals and approach of GrapheneOS which wrongly portray it as a security project rather than a privacy project. His claims in the interview are more than egregiously inaccurate.

@aral @Framasoft You've likely already read our previous thread where we directly addressed these inaccurate claims. Here's the relevant part of the thread:

We're repeatedly published content addressing people inaccurately claiming GrapheneOS is a security project rather than a privacy project. He has read multiple of these threads and knows what we've said. He's saying what he did in the interview despite that. This isn't about getting any technical details wrong.

@aral @Framasoft We aren't finished responding to it with this thread. We're going to be posting it on our forum and other social media platforms too. We're going to be responding beyond what we're already posted. We've been actively finding and archiving more cases of /e/, Murena and Gaël Duval attacking GrapheneOS by claiming it's only useful to criminals and spies which they've said directly multiple times along with often alluding to it. We have a lot more than that one video clip to use.

@aral @Framasoft /e/ and Murena were smearing GrapheneOS this way long before the French government started doing it. Once France started doing it at a state level, they joined in on it.

Gaël Duval voiced support for this and went far beyond that by actively linking to harassment content towards our founder based on fabricated stories as he has done before. Duval linked harassment content from a conspiracy blog trying to get him to amplify it. The site he linked has literal neo-nazi content.
