I installed GrapheneOS on my Pixel 4a after Google deleted the battery life[0], and while the initial move was frustrating with things not working, I've adapted and have a nice feeling of security while using my device again. It feels like it's mine, and I don't have to worry about who will spy on me or rug-pull me next.

Such a bizarre phenomenon to me that people are still griping about a software update that stops a 4-year-old battery from detonating when the same company will also fix the phone for free or just hand you $50 if you prefer that.

I don't have any idea what the situation is here and whether it's as black and white as you paint it, but regardless, surely something as significant as this should be presented to the user as an option rather than the manufacturer deciding for you that your phone that you own and paid for should now be unusable?
