Fascinating read. I know nothing about any of this neither the parties involved nor Copperhead though I had heard of Graphene. To that end, I wish the response included a pre-amble for those like me who were not familiar with what was going on. I guess I could probably read the Wired article though. Still. good read and I loved the Q and A at the end.

"They have a long history of long rants attacking people and projects" in response to a long post...

You are very much saying that OP is an attack post.

Or at least implying the point that it is tonally dissonant to claim otherwise.

If you didn't believe it was wrong you would comment on the post but you are explicitly avoiding doing that.

> Something along the lines of "you know regardless of whether or not you're factually correct, these public attacks on other people companies are really bad for your image"

Sometimes they aren't even factually correct and get a bit upset about it when called out.

Anyways, I have gotten the same impression and these seem like red flags to me as well.

Which is why I'd take everything in that response with a mountain of salt (and I'd pay attention to what they're not saying).

Wired article: They Built a Legendary Privacy Tool. Now They're Sworn Enemies https://www.wired.com/story/they-built-privacy-tool-graphene... ( https://archive.ph/pbJu9 )

That archive.ph link has a nasty captcha I can't seem to pass with regular Chrome nor Firefox. Is there a mirror of that mirror?

Do you have a link to the mastodon interaction where they threatened you with legal action?

I ask because I'd be pretty disappointed in GrapheneOS over that kind of thing and it'd probably at least partially change my opinion of them, but it's better to validate these types of serious accusations and get the full context.
