They don't want to, which is fine for their goal of having the absolutely most secure phone possible.

    Short-sighted goal in my opinion. They could be the leader in privacy for smartphones from the bottom up, including hardware and software.

    GOS's work with Motorola might just lead Motorola to be that group as they always have for decades, so my issues might go away anyways.

    Just getting arrogant, self-isolating vibes when they have soooo much good will with the tech community on building privacy from the ground up in some of the most important intelligent devices in our lives.

    Why can't GOS join a working group with ISO or IEC or IEEE or other groups to create roadmaps and tiers of compliance so that other manufacturers have means and methods of approaching GOS's lofty goals.
