This implies searching other phones don't require warrants?
Yes. Yes it does.
Or more accurately, they can't search your phone without you knowing with GrapheneOS, so they have to get a judge to force you to willing unlock it.
So they follow the laws only on GrapheneOS users. Iirc other up to date phones are also hard to crack especially if it's on first unlock
I don't really know. I operate under the assumption that my phone is always a piece of spyware and minimize what's actually on it or what it can hear.
You are a smart person. We need more people like you.
