Fairphone is such an obvious partner here I guess that's why they went with a Chinese manufacturer instead.

I am sure nothing bad will come from that decision.1, 2, 3

Seriously, though. Why?

How would you compare that to the fairphone?

Motorola is based in a freedom respecting country not the EU so certainly they won't get compromised by the hardware.

Does it matter since Google seems intent on killing them?

Exactly how is it fear mongering to point out that Google has been taking steps towards preventing the GrapheneOS devs from accessing the Android source code?

If anyone is planning on purchasing the new Motorola phone with the intention of using it with GrapheneOS they should be aware of what Google is trying to do and the risks associated.

How I imagine the decision:

Should we maybe port it to Fairphone? The phone most of our users probably like?

Nah let's do Motorola instead - you know the company were you have to spin a dice to determine if your device can unlock the bootloader or not...
