This is a company making a fork of open source code and including a backdoor in it. These aren't Google Android devices. How exactly do you prevent someone doing the same with any of your projects? You don't, and as usual you're misleading people with your dishonest approach.

The headline and article on Ars is a little bit misleading but that's not what I was talking about. I'm talking about Purism repeatedly attacking iOS and Android by being misleading and even outright dishonest, especially when what they're offering is much worse at these things.

I don't think that's an on-topic discussion and would rather not have it here. GrapheneOS could run on the Librem 5 but since it's not going to support many of the standard and important hardware security features it likely wouldn't make sense as an officially supported target.
If you want to talk about unrelated things, they should be discussed somewhere else. I posted my response because I'm bothered by seeing a stream of misinformation and misleading attacks rather than real substance. It has to do with their approach to marketing and nothing else.
