    [$] Graphene OS: a security-enhanced Android build

    Description:
    People tend to put a lot of trust into their phones. Those devices have
    access to no end of sensitive data about our lives our movements,
    finances, communications, and more so phones belonging to even relatively low-profile people can be high-value targets. Android devices run free software, at least at some levels, so it should be possible to ensure that
    they are working in their owners' interests. Off-the-shelf Android installations tend to fall short of that goal. The GrapheneOS Android
    rebuild is an attempt
    to improve on that situation.
