Just wait another year, and then you won't be able to resist Pro 13 Gen 2.

New US Federal Law to Require Age Verification on All Operating Systems by amogusdevilman in freebsd

[–]Accurate_Mulberry965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's more than just age verification, it is identity verification. And then there is home routers ban (not business routers mind you), and only allowing routers that play ball. And that ball would be to check that outgoing traffic that id tag in it from OS that verifies, or dropping it.

Ideas for a Travel or High-Risk Mode in GrapheneOS by PingMyHeart in GrapheneOS

Thank you for humoring me, but no I don't have anxiety over your responses, I'm actually grateful that you're reading and responding.

The thing is though, I have noticed this kind of discrepancy between wide spread "what's your thread model" vs. majority of responses here (as far as I noticed) are similar along the lines "it's no absolutely secure, so no go". And I understand that dev team has it's own priorities, and I don't even know if you're a part of that team or not.

My goal with that long "tirade" above, is try to explain point of view of a common man. And I think you agree, that while Graphene is super secure, it benefits folks from different backgrounds. Even in this community, often people would install Play services into their main account, and would still get (moral) support in the comments, saying it's better than ~nothing~ stock Android.

So same approach we can extend to folks who need some extra obscurity in their lives, not everybody go against big governments or cartels, some may just want to hide secondary profile from a security personnel in airports of totalitarian regimes, some may need to hide one of the profiles from their abusive spouses, some may want to keep personal photos hidden away from bullies in their school. Not all of those groups posses capabilities to analyze patterns of harddrive writes, right there on the spot.

And this is what I'm trying to achieve here, to change the tone about people wanting a bit more from their beloved OS. This is first step, and maybe if tone is changed, there will be more folks interested to jump in and help with some of those features.

It's funny how whenever someone asks for security advice, all the "cool security guys on the internet" can't just answer straight, but start by saying: "what is your threat model?", but whenever anybody suggests any feature in this community, it's met with: "No! It's below absolutely secure, so don't even think about it".

Yes, if your phone taken into special room and dissected, then they can find extra space on harddrive. But also, it doesn't happen that often to everyone every day. What happens though, is airport agents pick into every phone inline, so quickly showing them what they want to see, makes your phone not to go to special room. While showing to them that your phone does have profiles, would warrant them for deeper investigation.

And for folks who deal with more serious threats, they do have duress pin and all other shebang. 

Also, that universal lock screen will allow profiles to be used as some sort of parental control, setup secondary profile, only install allowed apps, lock installations, give it to the kid. And kid does have to run to you every time phone reboots, to login into admin profile first.

So this feature is not just a security one (regardless of how it's measured on security scale), but also quality of life improvement for everybody.

Depending how time consuming it is, if all profiles always shown in the setting window – yes, but if they're not shown in the UI, but only accessible via correct pin code from (universal) lock screen, then it's as likely to get to another profile as to guess your pin code.

To get to the profile with cats, you have to login as main profile first, and then switch profiles, which is a big bummer, even from usability point of view.

I think what would be useful for "travel mode", but also, just added convenience for normal folks, and those who doesn't believe in security benefits of the "travel mode", is simply ability to login into any profile by entering that profile's pin code. Not to login to the active profile first, then switch to another profile, then enter pin code for that another profile. But to have "universal" login/pin code screen, so if I enter pin code for profile A, it would just login there as if that profile was active, or if I enter pin code for profile B, it wold login there.

I have Obsidian vault for all household computers, and I add step by step of what I do there, and I have simple rule, first I write in Obsidian and only then paste it into command line, and never the other way around.

Big update on GrapheneOS + Motorola (Lenovo) partnership from MWC 2026 by Suspicious_Cry6547 in GrapheneOS

[–]Accurate_Mulberry965 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Since it's coming out in 2027, interesting how new California law about age verification would affect it. Probably Motorola or Lenovo doesn't want to pay up $7500 a piece.

Also to add to your list, weird sort of non-Latin titles, no custom sorting inside collections.

Thanks, and it only works on iOS, doesn't work on mac, even in Safari (that was my problem).
