    I was hoping from the title that this meant that Graphene could run on the car. They’re still a huge privacy concern.

      GrapheneOS requires specific safety hardware that, as of now, is usually available only on the Google Pixel line of phones. If your standard smartphone doesn’t include it, I doubt a car does.

      Android Auto is a specific system that mirrors app contents from your phone. It’s basically an extended monitor for your phone with specific formatting to be car usage friendly. It doesn’t do anything about a car’s embedded systems

            What does that have to do with my question?

            Which question? The one you asked who was the huge privacy concern? If so…did you read the article they linked you? Because the answer is there, and I’m not going to read it for you.

                …either of them?

                They answered the “who is the huge privacy concern” with the link. I literally just said that.

                so I don’t know how you could possibly know who they were speaking of.

                I read the link that was the replied to you, and applied context. It’s not hard to understand what a person means when they literally write it down. It’s one method of communication. Or do you constantly read articles, and never know what the authors meant unless you can quiz them directly?

                Plugging your phone in doesn’t suddenly make your car more or less private so I don’t understand the relevance.

                They weren’t necessarily talking about making the car more or less private via plugging in the phone. The original comment in this thread was wishing GrapheneOS was on cars, and then “modern cars are bad for privacy” link. They were talking about the existing poor state of privacy on modern cars and wishing it was fixed via wishing GrapheneOS could be flashed to the car. There was nothing in this thread about plugging your phone into the car making it more or less private. Again…context.

                    And I literally just said you can’t possibly know who the person I replied to was referring to.

                    They are obviously referring to the manufacturers in the link.

                    Only if they write very unclearly, as the person I replied to did.

                    They didn’t. They gave you a link that you didn’t read, clearly. Or if you did…then those manufacturers are who they’re talking about.

                    byebye now.

        they meant it as having graphene replace the car’s OS. the cars themselves is the privacy concern
