However, we don't have a "hardened security" approach, we aren't developing a phone for pedo(censored) so they can evade justice.

Recently, France's national law enforcement began fearmongering about GrapheneOS and smearing it with inaccurate claims. France's corporate and state media heavily participated. Many articles and also radio/television coverage misrepresented GrapheneOS as being for criminals.

It was already debunked. A single french tabloid (not true journal) featured why graphene was used by criminals. It's not the government that was specifically targetting it by all means it had.
