I would have personally opted for an 8a since the 7 will loose support in Oct 2027 while the 8a will keep being supported until May 2031. (In addition to supporting MTE which improves security even more) I haven’t checked their prices on the used market but I don’t think they should be that different.

Which model did you get?

I just use Chinese AI atp. Deepseek and Kimi.

There’s nothing anywhere close to the security and privacy Graphene provides. Find something like a used 8a somewhere. Check Backmarket, Swappa too not just Amazon and ebay.

Because they’re wiretaps. Insane that it took this long for people to understand this.

My 800s are made in Ireland

I also have Amex and Discover… oh wait

There’s actually an ESU bypass for Windows 7 that provided updates until January 2026.

Exactly I’d even use Chrome before I’d ever touch Brave.
