- <p>Broader device support can only happen after the community (companies,
- organizations and individuals) steps up to make substantial, ongoing contributions to
- making the existing device support sustainable. Once the existing device support is
- more sustainable, early research and development work for other devices can begin.
- Once a device is deemed to be a worthwhile target, the project needs maintainers to
- develop and maintain support for it including addressing device-specific issues that
- are uncovered, which will include issues uncovered in the device support code by
- GrapheneOS hardening features.</p>
-
- <p>It's not really a matter of time but rather a need for community support for the
- project increasing. As an open source project, the way to get something to happen in
- GrapheneOS is to contribute to it, and this is particularly true for device support
- since it's very self-contained and can be delegated to separate teams for each
- device. If you want to see more devices supported sooner, you should get to work on
- identifying good devices with full support for alternative operating systems with
- verified boot, etc. and then start working on integrating and testing support.</p>
- <p>It should also be clear that the expectation is for people to buy a device to run
- GrapheneOS, rather than GrapheneOS supporting their existing devices. This will only
- become more true if GrapheneOS is successful enough to accomplish the goal of having
- devices produced based on an SoC reference design with minor improvements for privacy
- and security. Broad device support is the opposite of what the project wants to
- achieve in the long term.</p>
+ <p>The expectation is for people to buy a secure device meeting our requirements
+ to run GrapheneOS. Broad device support would imply mainly supporting very badly
+ secured devices unable to support our features. It would also take a substantial
+ amount of resources away from our work on privacy and security, especially since
+ a lot of it is closely tied to the hardware such as the USB-C port control and
+ fixing or working around memory corruption bugs uncovered by our features. We
+ plan to partner with OEMs to have devices produced meeting all our requirements,
+ providing additional privacy/security features beyond them and ideally shipping
+ with GrapheneOS rather than massively lowering our standards.</p>
