It says that trusting Mozilla for the location backend is the same as trusting Google. I may be biased or something because I use Mozilla services but that’s just insane to me. Mozilla’s business model is not the same as Google’s. Are there no network based location services for Graphene other tjan Google? GPS location sucks sometimes and I’d like to have a proper alternative if possible.

Yeah but those are the issues that I have. The idea is to have a private phone where you don’t have to worry about Google harvesting your data and keeping it forever. But when you have an OS that has all these features and then use the Google services that take all that data, what is the point?

Also it’s quite a security issue since it needs signature spoofing to work which is insecure by definition.

According to the last paragraph here, the spoofing at least in Calyx is limited to only microG. It’s less secure than a sandboxed thing, but I don’t think it’s gonna be that bad.
