That guy also told people to use google android instead of graphene a few years ago
No he didn't, this is misinformation. Henry from Techlore explained that he was switching back to stock Android, mainly to take advantage of the Google Advanced Protection Program. The description of the video literally reads:
In the final section of the video he very clearly explains that this is his personal choice and that he is NOT recommending people copy him. He said this is an objectively bad decision for some threat models and that he was only doing it to get ahead of the curve when it came to potential security issues in the future.
What was his rationale for recommending stock Android over graphene?
better "security" if I remember correctly
Not sure if I buy that explanation, it's rough to say AOSP is more secure then graphene.
If they had said trusting Google is necessary anyway, so you might as well trust them for the software and the hardware, and not introduce any extra parties. That's a reasonable thing to say. At least that would be an interesting and defensible argument.
I think because he sold out and i have seen other spyuber suggest some watered down bullshit. But if there is a good reason, it would be good to know.
I explained it here. The person you are replying to is just straight up lying about the video in question.
It doesn't matter theyre all compromised.
