    Well, yes, but that is not exclusive to Pixels, and in fact, most phones (other than the latest iPhones) are more vulnerable. Pixels, especially the latest devices, have the best hardware security features of any Android phone (unfortunately). You’re focused on Pixel, but that’s only because of the recent leaks which specifically focused on Pixel because of their breaching difficulty. Here’s the full matrix from last year (which hasn’t leaked as recently):

    GrapheneOS, even now, is not vulnerable for several reasons, most of which tie into the hardware features of the Pixel. There’s a reason Graphene only works on Pixel.

    All I’m saying is that it’s entirely misleading to imply that only Pixels are vulnerable. This is not the case, even for iPhones.

    I’m also not sure why you seem to be trying to say I disagree on the fact that Google is happy to leave vulnerabilities wide open, when that is exactly what I said in my original comment. Their new release schedule allows them to leave these vulnerabilities open for an even longer time, making Cellebrite’s job easier.
