    Question: What is Google's track record for where their open source releases end up over time?

    Genuinely not knowledgeable here

      Well, they're not above forking their own project to patch security holes and never upstreaming the fixes.

      <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;grapheneos.social&#x2F;@GrapheneOS&#x2F;117282080803799576" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;grapheneos.social&#x2F;@GrapheneOS&#x2F;117282080803799576

      &gt; Google should not be gatekeeping security patches to the standard Android platform code from Android OEMs but that&#x27;s what they&#x27;ve started doing.

        There is an assumption that AOSP is how OEMs receive Android updates from Google. However I am not sure that is the case. GrapheneOS is perhaps a minority player due to lack of hardware which they can use to get into a partnership agreement and advanced access.
