app compatibility. It's focused on the research and development of privacy and
security technology including substantial improvements to sandboxing, exploit
mitigations and the permission model. GrapheneOS also develops various apps and
services with a focus on privacy and security.</p>
<p>GrapheneOS is a collaborative open source project, not a company. It's used and
supported by a variety of companies and other organizations. It won't be closely tied
to any company in particular. There will eventually be a non-profit GrapheneOS
foundation, but for now the developers represent the project.</p>
<p>GrapheneOS has made substantial contributions to the privacy and security of the
Android Open Source Project, along with contributions to the Linux kernel, LLVM,
OpenBSD and other projects.</p>
<p>GrapheneOS was founded by Daniel Micay in late 2014. It started as a solo project
was subsequently sponsored by a company that is no longer associated with it. The
copyright for GrapheneOS code is entirely owned by the GrapheneOS developers and is
made available under OSI approved Open Source licenses. All of the code written by
people under contract with the former sponsor was removed from the project due to
becoming obsolete, long before it was known as GrapheneOS. The code that remains from
the previous era is entirely owned by Daniel Micay, was never written under any
contracts or employment agreements, was never assigned to any company or organization
and was the continuation of the original independent open source project. The former
sponsor attempted to take over the project through coercion, but they were rebuked,
and since then they've taken to fraudulently claiming ownership and authorship of our
work which has no basis in fact. The former sponsor has engaged in a campaign of
misinformation and harassment of contributors to the project. Be aware that they are
actively trying to sabotage it through any means necessary to support their failing
business. This paragraph was reluctantly included here despite wanting to move
forwards and will be expanded if necessary.</p>

<p>GrapheneOS is a privacy / security research and engineering project that has been
under way for over 5 years. It recently became rebranded as GrapheneOS and is taking a
different direction based on obtaining funding for the research and development work
as a non-profit open source project rather than being a company. The reborn project is
still in a very early stage and lots of the past work on privacy and security has not
yet been restored for the new incarnation of the OS.</p>
<p>The grapheneos.org site is still being put together. It will have lots of
additional documentation and tutorials in the future along with coverage of various
software, firmware and hardware privacy/security topics.</p>
<p>GrapheneOS is being supported with funding and developers from various companies
and other organizations interested in contributing to this shared base for a feature
rich private and secure mobile operating system able to run many existing
applications. It will take more time to organize and deploy these resources in order
for the project to have a strong development team with proper infrastructure behind
it.</p>
