“So don’t make us torture you for encryption keys got it?”
Let’s be honest, they were almost certainly already doing that. They’re just getting brazen enough to not hide it anymore.
That shouldn’t matter to the open source encrypted chat apps because their code can be easily be independently audited. Just another reason to ONLY use fully open source software when dealing with anything cryptography related.
Rich people tend not be good people in general

Text copy of their post:
Corporate capture of Dems is real. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation.
Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote.
At a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.
By working on the front lines of many policy issues, we have seen the shift between Dems and Republicans over the past decade first hand.
Dems had a choice between the progressive wing (Bernie Sanders, etc), versus corporate Dems, but in the end money won and constituents lost.
Until corporate Dems are thrown out, the reality is that Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses.
Worse, setting DNT makes your browser more unique for fingerprinting.
I don’t know if this is standard on all authenticator apps or not but I like the fact that Ageis makes you enter your password once in a while so you don’t forget it.
Wish they’d at least support Fairphone.
If Graphene reached out to them I bet Fairphone would even actively work with them to make it an official OS option.
It’s almost as if a clown programmed it
This makes me want to use GrapheneOS more. If the dataminers don’t want you to use it then it must be doing something right.
Yeah because the police using a commercially available and ridiculously cheap device to copy data from your phone is totally unbelievable. I must be the crazy one.
News flash, they’re not FBI tier ultra classified tools anymore, you can find them on eBay for less than $1000. There’s a good chance that’s cheaper than the phone you have right now. You think a police department who is already intent on scrolling through your phone while “checking your ID” wouldn’t just put one in every cruiser?
There’s a good chance they have a Cellebrite in their car and will copy your entire phone’s storage over.

Trusting your security to Google is literally like trusting a fox to guard your hen house.
This video from a security researcher says that pretty much every software that uses WebP was affected though, and once the issue was discovered, Google made commits in their own codebase to “fix” it. Which suggests it’s an issue with the upstream source code that Google provided to everyone else.
Anything that was designed be exploited was designed that way for a reason. You think Intel isn’t aware of the security issues with how they designed their CPUs?
I already have a pixel. Is it just as easy as installing Lineage OS on the phone?
