Robert Braxman has published another video spreading blatant misinformation about #GrapheneOS in order to promote his highly insecure products and services. In addition to many false technical claims and fabrications about our team, he's falsely claiming the project is dying.

We have a thread already debunking this recent line of attack on GrapheneOS at:

https://xcancel.com/GrapheneOS/status/1936420921931084075

GrapheneOS quickly provided the June security patches, was ported to Android 16 and is working with a major Android OEM. It's not dying and we haven't said or implied it is.

Braxman presents himself as a privacy and security expert but isn't one. He's a shady businessman selling unsafe snake oil products and services. His content is filled with outright fabrications and is heavily aimed at promoting his products. It misinforms rather than educating.

Seems like this gent has a “competing” product to sell

He does. He sells bottom of the barrel MediaTek devices running a poor fork of LineageOS. It comes with the usual hardware acceleration for neural networks which he would claim is a backdoor when it exists on other devices.

He doesn't understand AI or what it means for there to be hardware acceleration for them. His thought process is essentially that if a computer has something like a GPU able to accelerate neural networks, then it's a thinking machine watching you and reporting on you to the authorities, with no evidence or basis for it:

Almost everything he claims about whistleblowers and the intelligence community is directly contradicted by actual leaks from the whistleblowers he brings up.

Tell us more about these contradictions because I don't believe you

Or don't, I'm not a cop
