alt Hacker NewsFairphone 6 does not fulfill the hardware requirements (secure enclave, MTE, etc.), nor software requirements (monthly firmware updates, etc.). So there is nothing that GrapheneOS can do at this point. The ball is in Fairphone's court if they want this, but Fairphone seems more interested to cooperate with /e/OS, whose CEO proclaims security hardening is for pedophiles and spies (thereby fueling the narratives that support chat control and such nonsense).
One of the underlying reasons is probably that the Fairphone hardware and software is developed/maintained by a Chinese ODM (T2Mobile), so the question is if Fairphone even has the know-how to make such a phone. Heck, they have failed to fix bugs that have been plaguing people for months (e.g. regular dropping of all connections when using IPv6 on certain routers).
Motorola is going to make devices that fulfill the requirements and GrapheneOS is cooperating with them.
> whose CEO proclaims security hardening is for pedophiles and spies
This is a direct quote from the graphenOS Twitter[1] (you can see it in the thread above) and this is a completely misleading reading of the interview of Murena's founder that is being quoted. The actual quote is instead: «il n'y a pas des trucs de sécu vraiment durcis qui pourraient être utiles, clairement, pour des dirigeants, dans les services secrets ou que sais-je. C'est pas notre but».
So you see, the quote says the opposite of how grapheneOS is framing it, it's not “just for pedophiles and spies”, it's “clearly useful” («utiles, clairement,») for some category of people, including security agencies but also executives or other activities, but it's not their goal to offer such a high level of security regardless of other implications (the goal being usable by the mass, having lower security guarantees is a tradeoff that allows running on more hardware).
The personal crusade from GraphenOS's lead against another open source project that simply have different goal is frankly off-putting.
