No one told me you could just get a used Pixel and boot grapheneOS onto it. The security features I get from this OS are kind of nuts

- if it pisses off the government to the point where they're asking you to put in backdoors, and you tell them "to fuck off", and then you get labeled as the "criminal friendly phone", then you're probably doing something right

GrapheneOS remains available for users in France and there's nothing illegal about it. All of our services will still work in France. Our servers won't be hosted in France or with providers based in France (OVH) anymore. We already moved all the main ones used by the OS away.

A claim is being pushed that two newspapers are the reason we’re pulling operations out of France.
That is entirely wrong!
We would still be leaving regardless of whether the newspapers or the French media supported us.

French law enforcement hijacked the servers of companies selling secure phones multiple times and is comparing us with those companies. They've made it clear they expect access to phones and will go after us if we do not cooperate. Cooperating with that means adding a backdoor.

One of the French news pieces referenced GrapheneOS as being available on "the dark web" and went all-in on "bad faith framing" it's complete bs, far beyond bad journalism.
There's no doubt in my mind that it's an intentional smear campaign, designed to harm GrapheneOS and damage their reputation.

A false narrative is being pushed about GrapheneOS claiming we're ending operations in France due to the actions of 2 newspapers. That's completely wrong. If both newspapers and the overall French media had taken our side instead of extreme bias against us, we'd still be leaving.

We no longer have any active servers in France and are continuing the process of leaving OVH. We'll be rotating our TLS keys and Let's Encrypt account keys pinned via accounturi. DNSSEC keys may also be rotated. Our backups are encrypted and can remain on OVH for now.

Here's another French journalist participating in fearmongering about GrapheneOS. That article is not measured. It provided a platform to make both unsubstantiated and provably false claims about GrapheneOS while providing no opportunity to see and respond to those claims.

Un point qui devrait alerter. Je trouve l'article du @leparisien.fr mesuré: il signale les craintes policières d'une dérive vers un usage criminel et donne la réponse opposée de GrapheneOS. Mais regardez la réaction de cette dernière: il serait inadmissible de mettre une telle question sur la table

The team has now ported all security preview patches to Android 16 QPR1 now and plan to start building an initial security preview release soon.
We don't plan to move an A16 QPR1 release to the Beta channel until it is available, yet either may have issues preventing a move to Beta regardless.
