Funny how nobody’s talking about the privacy trade-offs when using Google Maps on GrapheneOS. Sure, it works, but sandboxed Play Services? Location tracking? The forums hint at workarounds, like rerouting requests to block history, but that’s not exactly seamless. Meanwhile, alternatives like Organic Maps get praised for privacy, yet they lack the same navigation polish. Is "better" really about features, or is it about who’s watching? The claim feels like a half-truth—GrapheneOS prioritizes security, but slapping Google Maps on it doesn’t erase the data pipeline. What’s the real cost of that convenience?
