You mean that GrapheneOS has ties to Russia? https://ised-isde.canada.ca/cc/lgcy/fdrlCrpDtls.html?p=0&cor...

(I actually couldn't find information on their nationality, they might be e.g. Ukrainian or second-generation Russian immigrants; Micay is somewhat Russian-sounding too, btw, although I think he's known to have been born in Canada).

No, Jolla. They worked with the Russian government. But they cut ties even before the 2022 invasion:

Cutting ties is a matter of protecting ones investment, while working with certain parties is a moral choice.

GrapheneOS also does, as does iOS (Jobs visited the USSR on July 4th of all days) and Android (Sergey Brin is of Russian descent). The FSB is likely reading over your shoulder as we speak. Also, have you checked your closets lately?

You are trying to be funny, while russian drones fly above my mom's house, so it isn't as good of an answer to give as you may image

I get frustrated when people draw imaginary Russian connections into projects/products that I like. It often happens with anything “hackerish” or non-mainstream (particularly privacy adjacent things) and has become quite annoying.
