    I think the French government is overly retarded. Too much of an overreach

    France has threatened us with the same actions they took against SkyECC and Encrochat if we do not cooperate by providing law enforcement access into devices. The actions they took against those were mass arrests and seizure of servers. We don't have cloud infrastructure for builds/signing but regardless we don't want the French state taking over our website, etc. so we're leaving France and OVH.

    And as another user pointed out, doesn't necessarily have to be a backdoor for everyone. They could simply push a malicious update to a subset of users.

    GrapheneOS has automatic OTA updates by default and they could probably break the crypto of a specific device that way. Not unreasonable to think the government would issue a court order for something like that
