This idiots going to get it banned
I’m kinda astonished he uses more than 100 apps… who needs that many apps?
I have Linus blocked in my frontend and have no interest in unblocking.
It certainly feels like GrapheneOS is the only project that is a threat to the government, which we all know have unlimited resources at their disposal, unlike Graphene Foundation.
this narrative that criminals use this OS, is exactly the excuse they’ll be looking for, the privacy community don’t have the high ground in this reality that we live in, considering past events (e.g. chat control) this content does more harm than good. (but some YouTuber has to get their Ad revenue)
he mentioned something about convenience in the last part, well if you throw them some money… they could hire someone to fix those issues…
well if you throw them some money… they could hire someone to fix those issues…
Even better… Hire someone to fix those issues and submit an MR.
Fuck Linus.
Why are you letting someone you don’t like take up time in your life
I love that he is implying that GrapheneOS is the criminal OS of choice. /s
That had not even entered my mind before just associating it with privacy. Thanks Linus what a real help pushing that narrative with the title and thumbail.
If you watch the video, they’re citing Spanish officials. It was a big hurrah that went around a couple months ago.

But yeah, it makes for great clickbait too. You know the GOS guys are foaming at the mouth already for their weekly HARRASSMENT debacle.
In an era of countries pushing things like chat control over and over and grasping at straws to try to ban encryption and pushing verification laws its so helpful for a big channel to spread the impression GrapheneOS is the criminals choice.
Just the type of helpful branding needed.
I think Gamer Nexus settled the matter of Linus’ value - feel free to disregard and move on.
I didn’t know about it and just looked up the gamers nexus video. Bless gamers nexus for having our backs.
Why do people still think he’s relevant?
Because he has 16 million subscribers? 🤔
That’s not a valid reason.
It’s what makes him relevant. Your personal feelings are not a valid reason.
They could be bots or socks, he could have paid for them. He did have a scandal where he lost a lot of followers (me included).
That doesn’t make him relevant. 🤷♂️
They’re not. And you know they’re not.
I don’t know anything about him since I stopped following him. The only thing I know is that he’s not trustworthy.
Ok so now we’ve moved the goalposts from “relevant” to “trustworthy”?
idiot’s
never gonna watch the “Idiot’s” channel of choice
I think if people look past the clickbait title and thumbnail the video is actually a positive for GOS
