@theleftistlawyer@mastodon.social Something about this Borg comparison is reminding me of how @pluralistic@mamot.fr is always saying that Margaret Thatcher's "There is no alternative" really means "Stop trying to think of alternatives". Given how often Janeway outfoxed the Borg, I guess resistance pays off.

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social So just to check my understanding here, you'd make a special release, binaries only for the patches. Someone outside the project decompiles the binary, uses it to discover the vulnerability, which they then report to you. Then you fix it for regular Graphene users. If I'm understanding correctly, then is there a chance the regular Graphene users don't get the patches if nobody outside the project does the decompiling? I would love to contribute, and maybe this is a reason to get good at doing this kind of thing. But I don't think my technical skills are up to scratch yet.

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social Yes sorry should have clarified, I meant regular Graphene users wouldn't get them until the embargo ends if no one does the decompiling.
