The most consequential threat on the horizon is not app-level censorship. It is identity verification baked directly into the operating system, in other words KYC at the device level, enforced before any app can be installed or used. @GrapheneOS closes this gap and remains as one of the most honest implementation of what self-custody actually requires in 2026: not just a private key, but a private device, one that cannot be remotely censored, identity-gated, telemetry-harvested, or OS-compromised by the platforms and rogue states.

Praying for more successful lawsuits over mandatory age-gating legislation, especially OS-level attestation.

GrapheneOS still relies on Android so hopefully people can start more smart phone Foss OS that are crowdfunded. That and I hope the people making Linux phones with kill switches get access to better hardware as demand for alternatives slowly keeps going up.
