Murena has spent years overly attacking the GrapheneOS project and our team. They've repeatedly falsely claimed that it's not a privacy project, isn't useful to regular people, is primarily used by criminals, is mainly only used by criminals/pedophiles and much more. They've spread massive amount of misinformation about the features, app compatibility and other aspects of what it provides to promote the products they sell. They've made it very clear they're talking about GrapheneOS in most of the posts talking about criminals. We gave clear 2 examples where their claims are much broader due to not specifically naming GrapheneOS because it's harder to dismiss the authoritarian anti-privacy talking points they're pushing when it's an attack on all serious privacy projects. There are more cases where they mention GrapheneOS than where they push those anti-privacy talking points without mentioning it.

microG isn't a one person project and has been largely funded by Murena, Calyx and FUTO. The government funding they get is mainly through Murena. The one person you're talking about working on microG has directly participated in attacks on GrapheneOS with false claims about it and our team, but most of it has come from the organizations funding it and paying people to work on it. Each of those 3 listed organizations has engaged in a massive amount of attacks on the GrapheneOS project including harassment. We haven't ever engaged in that towards any of them. You can see numerous cases throughout this thread of unprovoked personal attacks on our team and lies about us as individuals. It is not something both sides are doing as we haven't done it.
