Tbf, whenever there's a private tool like graphene, tor, tails, whonix, mullvad, matrix, jabber, pgp, etc?

Yes, criminals will use it, because of course they don't want to get caught for crimes just as much as we don't want to be tracked in general (maybe more, because crimes lol).

But also, criminals use roads, trains, busses, the USPS and private mail carriers, normal phones including SMS and calls, facetime, email, they drink water and eat food, on and on.

"Criminals use it" is a fucking stupid reason to ban anything, in fact it's a good reason we should adopt it too in terms of privacy, because if it works for them doing way worse than I am, then it ought to work just fine for me too. Besides over half of those criminals are just using WHM or whatever is the go to these days, define "criminals."

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.

Graphene OS is not for criminals. It is just basic privacy protection.

Criminals like privacy, too.

This cunt must be some sort of shill or plant for government or surveillance capitalists.

Neither. Just another shameless YouTuber farming for clicks with no regard for the damage it causes.

I just checked and I apparently have 137 apps on my phone. I think most of that though is just reading about some FOSS app, installing it to try it out and then just forgetting. I seem to have 4 different maps apps for example lol
