The directors of the the GrapheneOS Foundation and the other things you're talking about are public information. I stepped down as lead developer due to relentless harassment preventing me from being productive. The same people targeting me with harassment misrepresented what was happening.
You shouldn't get info about GrapheneOS from Hacker News comments especially when multiple regulars here are part of the attacks on GrapheneOS. Hacker News permits people to freely engage in libel and harassment towards me on nearly every post about GrapheneOS.

Seems like you’re proving his point. From what I can tell he founded the project and was bullied into leaving on social media. Happy to update my view if there’s additional information.
Just read the posts on his Reddit, Twitter, and HN accounts, and the official Reddit and Twitter for the GrapheneOS project. His unhinged rants are still up to this day.
It's quite literally at "The CalyxOS devs are in my walls!"-tier.
Seriously, take a look if you want to know more about the situation. Also see Louis Rossmann's videos on GrapheneOS, both the original video, and the follow-up after he got a bunch of schizo texts from Micay accusing him of being part of a secret cabal by a competitor project to spread misinformation about GraphineOS.
The guy's just a bit of a lolcow. I think there's even a literal KF thread on him lol.
Still a neat project in spite of the lead dev's schizo shenanigans, and I and many others I know from University run it on our daily drivers.
EDIT: And right after posting this, I scroll down and see this comment from him on this very reply chain: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47216724. I honestly don't think any additional commentary needs to be added lol

He runs the GrapheneOS twitter account and regularly engages in mud slinging and accusing people of trying to kill him. One would think he would take a W with Motorola.
