TBH, if you have enough sense in terms of #InfoSec, #OpSec & #ComSec your #ITsec shouldn't depend on @GrapheneOS being good.

• #GrapheneOS is, in fact, pretty good.

My pain-points with it are propably "nitpicky" for most, but I do want my devices to be #repairable, #serviceable and #upgradeable and (#security concerns aside) even #Fairphone has regressed in that part since I got my #Fairphone3plus.

• I certainly want more #repairable and #secure devices and those things don't exclude each other.

But call me a weirdo for thinking so...

• Also the only criminals that get caught are those too stupid or those being paid to serve time and shut up. And if the latter one sounds weird to you, then you need to read up on that...

#Smartphones #privacy #security

@djsundog Also it's more of a Declaration of Intent of the Manufacturer to not make a #Serviceable / #RepairableDesign and not provide #AfterSalesSupport...

• If I was @EUCommission I'd mandate #Schematics and #RepairManuals as well as access to all #parts necessary to fix a system at FRAND terms by law.

I think that #CAMM is a bad design compared to #SODIMM & #DIMM...

• Like #Apple's bs of #SolderedDownRAM but just slightly less worse cuz now one could only in theory get a daughterboard and doesn't have to replace individual chips.

Still, just gimme regular-ass socketed Chips & #DIMMs ffs!

• Also we don't need to make the THINN-nest machines ffs - just make them #repairable and #serviceable and #upgradeable, because #AntiRepairDesign is way more unsustainable than the 0,1% of idiots who give a shit about whether their #DDR5-RAM can do 6400MT/s or 4800MT/s, simply because most users won't notice that at all (unlike switching from a 2,5" #SATA-#HDD running at 5400rpm to an #NVMe-#SSD that maxes out #PCIe 4x connections.

#FACT: #RAM & #SSD|s are inevitably dying due to age and use and like #ThermalPaste need to be #replaceable for a device to work longterm!

• So stop the #Enshittification of #tech FFS!

I'd rather have a #THICC af #laptop that actually survives my daily use than some flimsy #tablet that snaps in half if I sneeze at it.

• No seriously, most devices can't even fit proper ports and cooling fans for no good reason whatsoever!

Also I think it's insulting to frame basic things like "stability" as a negative.

• Guess what? People want to #GetShitDone and the folks that actually buy a #MobileWorkstation want to be able to rely on that equipment...

@kenji Good idea, but wouldn't it be better to ban #CCSS and force everything to be #FLOSS and thus #maintainable and #serviceable even if the manufacturer goes out of business or doesn't give any f**ks?

Maybe do mandatory support lifecycle declarations that are legally binding for said producers of CCSS or otherwise directly commercially offered software, firmware and/or hardware!
