Given that the goal of GrapheneOS is security OS, and not the ability to run it on anything and everything, I would expect them to phase out support for old devices very shortly after the official support stops — primarily due to the fact that security fixes for those devices won't be coming.
No, that might hurt someone's feelings, so if you do that you'll be banned from the platform, your data will perish and your whole online personality will be canceled eventually. Welcome to the modern internet :)
"We're tired of constantly listening to your largely incomprehensible speech in attempts to extract any valuable for us information from it. It's time for a change, now we want you to upload the gists of that information to our servers yourself — already in a structured and convenient for us format." — said the spokesman.
What do you mean "admits"? It has been known from the very beginning to everyone who has read about LLMs at least from the output of those very LLMs (the irony, huh?).
PIN code throttling can't be implemented properly if hardware doesn't support it. This is the very purpose of the secure element.
It has its own CPU, storage, random number generator and realtime clock. Once a secret (encryption key) is generated inside of it, it can't get unlocked until this very tiny chip allows it. And the chip uses different kind of protections (in case of weak pins — the most prominent one is throttling using its built-in RTC clock).
If there's no secure element, then attacker can just extract the memory chip and easily brute force the encrypted key on the much more powerful (and not throttled by RTC) hardware.
And since the PIN codes are so weak, even the strongest key derivation functions won't help against such bruteforce.
Let me guess without even watching: he found abysmal security and horrible ways in which the actual footage is being used. Amirite?
Napoleon didn't have drones. We do.
So get there while you still can, GrapheneOS is awesome :)

Fuck all these totalitarian corpos.
Yet.

Fuckers.

Dude, that's a pizza cutter...
