Guide on using remote attestation in a way that's compatible with GrapheneOS.

Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of ‘non-google’ approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.

Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that’s true or not…

    Most banks restrict custom ROM and root access devices for security purposes. Same with MFA apps. I get it. From an IT security perspective, restrictions on software compatibility limit the number of failure points. Even if you find a custom OS that is more secure as an OS, it is installed through opening up your device to security risk and there is no real requirement for you to close up that security risk afterward. My company has made the same choice to restrict supported platforms for our services.

    McDonald’s app restricting the OS is probably some security decision they made because it’s more secure even when they probably don’t need it though.

        I never said it was. It’s also not the developers job to provide you the service on the platform of your choice. It’s the developers job to protect the companies servers and data. It’s the company’s job to provide you the service and it’s your job to decide to use it or not. And it sounds like you don’t like the means of service provision. So don’t use it. Easy enough.
