This is part of the overreaction I described. Nothing the government of France has said publicly indicates any interest in GOS, beyond one quote from one prosecutor. Has there been any direct communication between someone from the government and GOS regarding this issue?
I get that people are outraged, etc. but it's actually damaging the cause. GOS looks like an unreliable partner.
I am skeptical that there is any lesser step that they can take consistent with their goal of an uncompromised OS. Or that France would be satisfied with anything less. Security is not a side feature of GrapheneOS that they can compromise on, it's their core mission. It's like telling Frodo to see the sights in Mordor, but stay away from Mount Doom.
