/e/ is a highly problematic fork of LineageOS very poor privacy and atrocious security. People would be far better off using standard LineageOS one of the better supported devices. An iPhone is far more private and drastically more secure than Murena products.
/e/ lacks crucial standard privacy and security patches. It has many months and even years of delays to provide those. Nearly all the devices they support lack most Linux kernel, driver and firmware updates. They don't keep up with those for any devices. They don't keep up with Android, Chromium or Linux security updates anywhere either. Many severe patched privacy and security vulnerabilities are left wide open for months and even years with /e/. They heavily mislead their users about what's patched and how long they take to ship it.
/e/ also doesn't provide important standard privacy or security protections. It lags years behind on providing the current generation protections and disables many of the most important ones. An operating system failing to protect against known privacy weaknesses does not have reasonable privacy.
/e/ includes their own privacy invasive services and sends user data to third party including OpenAI without consent. Despite how it's marketed, it includes many Google services with privileged integration into the OS. They have their own privacy invasive services including user tracking with unique identifiers in their update client.
Their own supposed privacy features are incredibly flawed and do not provide what they claim. A small list of blocked domains omitting everything used for useful functionality does not stop tracking by apps or services. It leaves the most privacy invasive behavior of apps and services intact and is trivially bypassed in multiple ways even for what it does cover. Apps and services only need to use the same domains for functionality as tracking to avoid it which is already largely what they do. Apps and services also already widely deploy bypasses for this naive domain-based filtering even for domains dedicated to tracking. /e/ would have you believe that a DNS blocklist is a game changing approach. There are better implementations including RethinkDNS available for use elsewhere.

/e/ and their for-profit company Murena have repeatedly pushed anti-privacy talking points from authoritarians claiming devices with strong privacy and security are for criminals and pedophiles. Here are 2 examples where Gaël Duval says that himself about privacy/security hardened devices in general:

/e/ and Murena many of the same anti-privacy talking points as France's current government and national law enforcement. They've aligned themselves with authoritarians in the country where they're based instead of opposing it. There are dozens of examples where they falsely claim GrapheneOS are mainly useful to criminals and mainly used by criminals. That's more extreme than the claims by France's national law enforcement cracking down on secure devices. They've gone so far to align themselves with anti-privacy authoritarians that they're ahead of them.
Murena is a for-profit company with the founders and owners of it being the same people who run /e/. /e/ includes for-profit paid Murena services and is built for Murena to sell devices with it. Despite being made for profit, /e/ receives millions of euros in government funding from governments which have spent years cracking down on legitimate privacy products:

/e/ makes it far easier to remotely take over devices, violate user privacy from apps and bypass encryption to extract all the data from a device. These are exactly the kinds of devices authoritarians opposed to privacy and security want people to be using. These devices are much less private and drastically less secure than iPhones but are duping people into paying them for it with false marketing. They're regressing privacy and security instead of advancing it.

Translation to English:
> There's the attack surface, on that front we're not security specialists here, so I couldn't answer you precisely, but from the discussions I've had, it seems that everything we do reduces attack surface. However, we don't have a "hardened security" approach, we aren't developing a phone for pedo(censored) so they can evade justice. So there aren't difficult things to check if the memory is corrupted, really hardened security stuff that could clearly be useful for executives, in the secret service, or whatever. That's not our goal, our goal is to start from an observation: today our personal data is constantly being plundered and that wouldn't be legal in real life with the mail or the telephone, we want to change that. So we are making you a product that changes that by default for anyone.
Transcription in French:
> Il y a la surface d'attaque, là pour le coup on est pas des spécialistes de la sécurité, donc je ne pourrais pas te répondre avec précision, mais des discussions que j'ai eu, il semblerait que tout ce qu'on fait, ça réduit la surface d'attaque. Donc oui, probablement ça aide. Par contre, on a pas une approche "sécurité durcie", on développe pas un téléphone pour les pédo(bip) pour qu'ils puissent échapper à la justice. Donc il y a pas des trucs pas possibles pour voir si la mémoire est pas corrompue, des trucs de sécu vraiment durcis qui pourraient être utiles clairement pour des dirigeants, dans les services secrets ou que sais-je. C'est pas notre but, notre but c'est de partir d'un constat, aujourd'hui nos données personnelles sont pillées en permanence et ça serait pas légal dans la vraie vie avec le courrier ou le téléphone, on veut changer ça. Donc on vous fait un produit qui change ça par défaut pour n'importe quelle personne.

NEW from Whitney Webb and Mark Goodwin
Javier Milei’s administration has been showcasing Patagonia to Silicon Valley executives, culminating in OpenAI’s recent ‘Stargate Argentina’ announcement. The focus of this piece, Emiliano Kargieman, is the man actually developing OpenAI’s Argentine project and boasts significant ties to United States’ military and intelligence, NASA, Palantir and the Silicon Valley stalwarts who helped privatize space.
Here, we detail how Kargieman has said the quiet apart loud about how data center construction isn't about "making jobs", it's about making money, and how he has suggested that OpenAI is a front for the accelerated build-out of AI infrastructure (financed by an intentional debt bubble). He has also suggested that Stargate Argentina will eventually be used, not by OpenAI (which Kargieman anticipates will collapse when the AI bubble pops), but by the Argentine State.
In looking at Javier Milei's policies with respect to AI domestically in Argentina, the "digital transformation" of the Argentine State - which Stargate Argentina hopes to further advance - is largely for "predictive" behavioral control of its population. We also touch on some of the likely motivators of Peter Thiel's move to Argentina and where he fits into all of this.

OpenVibe
open-source desktop environment for agentic coding, built with Tauri and Rust. In my testing, it uses up to 4.5× less peak RAM than comparable Electron-based tools.
The agent works directly with a real repository: it gathers context, creates a plan, edits files, runs commands, and shows its progress and tool calls directly in the chat.
The application combines Monaco Editor, reviewable diffs, change rollback, Git, a terminal, LSP, MCP integrations, and a dedicated Chromium instance that the agent can control through CDP.
OpenVibe runs locally and is not tied to a single AI provider. Users can connect a cloud API, a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or a local model through Ollama, LM Studio, or vLLM.
Builds are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The project is licensed under GPL-3.0.

https://github.com/nikitasius/Telegraher/releases/tag/graher_12.92.6
* rollback fcm keys, same as their apk use (which are in fact for store version)
* new pin flow, pins from 4 to 16 digits & every fail/re-lock scramble layout
* fingerpring/faceid are disabled for your safety
* gradle & CI/CD updates
Visually pins have glitches (on unlock view), im too lazy, if someone not lazy, send me a PR.
You can update existing graher and unlock using actual and tap 🔫 to confirm
Folks WITH gapps/microg i need your feedbacks about battery and notifs.

🇨🇺Two hundred days under siege: The silent suffocation of a people
it has been 200 days in which an entire people have been subjected to suffering.
#Cuba will not be able to survive," Trump declared to the press that night, without hesitation.It wasn't just a threat; the energy embargo is not just another coercive measure. It is the tightening of the noose, the reopening of a wound that has been open for more than six decades.To understand its unique nature, it must be distinguished from the economic, commercial, and financial blockade, formalized on February 3rd, 1962, a policy of collective punishment that the international community has condemned on numerous occasions in the UN General Assembly
The energy blockade is something else entirely; it is the deliberate interruption of the flow of fuel to a nation that depends on it for everything to function: its hospitals, its water treatment plants, its water pumping systems, its food refrigeration systems, its transportation, its schools.
