Chromium already supports dynamic edge-to-edge viewports. This change opts-in by default, making the gesture navigation bar (chin) invisible without needing scroll interaction. No other changes were necessary, as no content relied on specific viewport insets. Command used: ``` sed -i 's/<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"\/>/<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover"\/>/g' **/*.html ```

<h1><a href="#copperheados">CopperheadOS is now GrapheneOS</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>CopperheadOS was renamed to GrapheneOS in 2019. It was temporarily known as the
|
|
Android Hardening project in 2018 before a permanent name had been chosen. For more
|
|
details on why the project was renamed, see <a href="/history/">our history page</a>.
|
|
For the historical release notes of the original CopperheadOS, see
|
|
<a href="/history/legacy-changelog">our legacy changelog page</a>. The
|
|
<a href="https://reddit.com/r/CopperheadOS">/r/CopperheadOS subreddit</a> was
|
|
historically the central hub of the community along with a bridged IRC/Matrix channel
|
|
that's no longer available.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>GrapheneOS is the continuation of the original open source project by the original
|
|
development team. Our <a href="/source">source code repositories</a> have been used
|
|
since CopperheadOS transitioned to being directly based on the Android Open Source
|
|
Project in 2015. The prior repositories predate the CopperheadOS branding and were
|
|
also owned by us. It can be confirmed that our repositories are the original ones from
|
|
the GitHub network graphs showing the forks over the years.</p>
|
|
|
|
<section id="ownership">
|
|
<h2><a href="#ownership">Ownership</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>We own the historical CopperheadOS source code, documentation and accounts tied
|
|
to the open source project. Our legacy Twitter account still needs to be returned
|
|
to us so that it can be renamed and made into an archive.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Copperhead has no valid claim over the ownership of the source code. It was not
|
|
developed for them. They were involved as a sponsor for the work and had
|
|
permission to sell products based on it, similar to companies selling devices with
|
|
GrapheneOS. We've learned a lot of lessons from what happened and are being very
|
|
careful to avoid being strongly associated with any particular company in the
|
|
future.</p>

<h2><a href="#new-product">New closed source product reusing the legacy branding</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The new product branded as CopperheadOS is closed source and not associated with
|
|
the original project. They took our project's previous name and copied our legacy
|
|
source code and documentation. Attribution to us has been stripped away and they
|
|
pretend to be the ones who created it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>They've essentially stolen the identity of our open source project and have
|
|
invested substantial resources into misrepresenting GrapheneOS as being a new
|
|
project. They've built a business based on taking credit for research and
|
|
development not done by them. Substantial damage has been done to GrapheneOS
|
|
through an organized campaign of misinformation and harassment.</p>

<h2><a href="#new-copperheados-vs-grapheneos">New CopperheadOS vs. GrapheneOS</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The new CopperheadOS is a shadow of the historical GrapheneOS code. They've
|
|
continued copying portions of our newer generation code but haven't developed any
|
|
significant privacy or security improvements on their own. It's a poor imitation
|
|
of the original. It has a fraction of the privacy and security improvements and
|
|
lacks a team with an understanding of how they work. It often doesn't receive
|
|
timely security updates. It has made serious mistakes compromising user privacy
|
|
and security.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>CopperheadOS is a paid product and has license enforcement compromising user
|
|
privacy and security through tracking devices to implement DRM. They use the
|
|
outrageous business model of charging users for security updates rather than
|
|
simply selling them the software or devices with it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>GrapheneOS devices can be purchased from a bunch of different companies,
|
|
organizations and individuals. Many of these offer customer support. Unlike
|
|
CopperheadOS, it's still open source software and you aren't being charged to
|
|
simply get the OS updates. Anyone can sell devices with GrapheneOS without
|
|
permission from the project due the open source licensing. Many of these sellers
|
|
voluntarily contribute back to the project.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>GrapheneOS is far more actively developed than the new CopperheadOS and has
|
|
substantially more resources available, including significantly more funding.</p>
