GrapheneOS has multiple people helping out. Many developers as well as people who help out with non-development work. It's a big claim to say that the whole team is unstable.
I'd suggest reading the article again. Considering the situation, the party about deleting the keys should be a good sign for anyone reading it. It shows that the project's leadership cares about doing things the right way. Members of the team are similarly dedicated to helping build and support an OS that improves people's privacy and device security, not to scam users by making a flashy product and rake in cash. Or, in Donaldson's case, work with shady companies and even possibly criminals.
Privacy and security projects like GrapheneOS are important considering the political landscape these days. People really need to stop repeating inaccurate claims about us, like that we're criminals, unstable, crazy, etc.
I didn’t claim the whole team was unstable.
> only works in favor of people or organizations that don't like us or want to damage GrapheneOS.
Then I’d suggest stop shooting yourselves in the foot with personal rants published as public communications. If you genuinely feel you’re doing important work, then why wouldn’t you take your public communications seriously and behave maturely, as an organization?
