Feels to me like GrapheneOS did exactly what it should, passing the US border test with flying colours!

Perfectly legal. Unless they were legally charged and ordered by a court to preserve data considered to be used in a crime, they can't be charged with shit. Cops don't dictate this, courts do, AND that scope only applies to an active prosecution anyway.

Legality seems to be a fairytale concept in the USA, except for oligarchs. They get full legal coverage.
