Replying to sargkinni

Currently I am on a Pixel 5a with Graphene, but it has been out of support for some time and I'm considering the move to Lineage for this device.

I severely limit what I do on it, and also have a background in network and device security so I'm able to monitor my device in a way that I feel I can hold out longer with out of support devices than I would advise for the general populous.

Graphene themselves say that with a 5a you are unprotected in case your device gets into the wrong hands.

Clarification and/or source? Any device is at risk when in the wrong hands.

Even on devices that have fallen out of support, protections against PIN and other input attacks are far stronger than stock AOSP and the cost requirement to attack unsupported devices with GrapheneOS on them is still fairly substantial.
