This is cool and all.
It's great really.
But I guess I'm more concerned with safety, privacy, and security while a device is running than when it's locked.
Which I know grapheneOS does a good job of. So I'm not being critical, just chiming in.

In the image they posted it showed GrapheneOS AFU (after first unlock) and Unlocked. Brute force methods are not viable and the filesystem is only accessible while the device is unlocked and is running a certain version apparently.
So, pretty secure while it's locked but seems resilient even unlocked.

Yeah that aligns with what I know about it.
It's great that a phone is secure when it's locked but issues while the phone in use seems to get talked about less.
I've used graphene before and it does a great job of implementing some robust security measures that are active during regular use - just saying I wish there was more of a focus on this from this POV.

What do you mean here? If a digital forensics team, police etc gets their hands on your phone while it's unlocked there really is nothing that can be done, unless you have some sort of killswitch attached to the USB port lol

Sorry if I was unclear - I meant accessing/exfiltrating data / C&C type shit while you're using the phone through whatever means.

They do though. Here's a couple off of the top of my head:

This isn't even new... It's a photo from GrapheneOS forum.. From a while ago like 2024.

This is a more recent version and includes the Pixel 9. You can see that when you compare the matrices.

Tbh the photo of the computer monitor was not legible enough for me to notice.
