Where is the cool dude who used to post really cool content on this twitter account? You've become mostly silent and just doing marketing things. His knowledge was really great.

I'm right here. I was pushed out of the company and completely screwed over by my former business partner, even though I built everything and own the projects that the company was built upon. I'm still doing the same kind of privacy and security work without Copperhead involved.

This Twitter account was used for my privacy/security research and open source projects. After pushing me out of the company, they dedicated legal resources to convincing Twitter to hand over the account to them as part of covering up what happening and trying to steal my work.

github.com/AndroidHardeni is where the currently active projects are located. I'm slowing reviving more of what I had going before. A subset of the old OS code is at github.com/AndroidHardeni and you can see those are all the original repositories with the original forks / stars.

I wish I could easily contact everyone from before and let them know what's happened. I posted a bit about the current ongoing issues in the past day rather than my usual posts about my work. That's why they're posting this nonsense filler as part of pretending it's all fine.

I am truly sorry to hear what has happened to you. This sounds unreasonably unfair. To be honest, looks incredibly dull and quiet right now. I'm not really sure I want/will trust them since I think you were the main tech lead of the project.

They seem to haven't made major new features (security related or otherwise) and the product looks quite stalled from this end. At least, that's how I see it from their social media communication.

They're lying about keeping up with security updates by the way. They're slowing merging the AOSP security updates which do not provide full security updates alone. Pixels only receive full security updates via Android 9 and they've failed to migrate to keep providing them.

Android 9 has substantial privacy and security improvements. It's far better to be using Android 9 with those improvements and full security updates, rather than Android 8 with a subset of my past hardening work without proper maintenance and meaningful continued development.
Some devices have full security updates for Android 8. Pixels have moved on to Android 9 and aren't among those. Device-specific security updates covering half the issues in security bulletins are only released for Android 9 and Copperhead is NOT providing full security updates.

They don't have privacy or security experts working for them. It makes absolutely no sense to use a small subset of my past hardening work without the basics like full Android security updates and the current set of baseline privacy and security features provided by Android 9.
