I would be really happy if the problem did not exist, but we are talking about laws and their *interpretation* here. This is not just an act of force by the EU. If phone manufacturers like the idea of blocking their phones (see IOS and Samsung), they will be happy to use (and abuse) any law through interpretation to comply. GrapheneOS unfortunately cannot say anything about this yet; it can only wait for Google's next move.

DIRECTIVE 2014/53/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32014L0053 COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2022/30 https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32022R0030 Note: I originally read this Italian article: https://www.tomshw.it/smartphone/leuropa-ha-ucciso-il-software-libero-per-gli-smartphone that seems more balanced and informed (and not an AI slop at all), but shared the xiaomitime.com one because it's in english; this later actually seems less detailed.
