"textContent": "Most of your points in this non-productive thread have been wrong starting from FDE vs FBE to a phony proclaimation that Google Pixels are fully open sourced phones.\n\nYou are also wrong about Qualcomm’s EDL mode. There’s not even a single ‘proof of concept’ case where using EDL would result in accessing encrypted user data. But in Pixels, unlike in any other smart phone, rebooting the phone into fastboot provided access to user data. Why was this a design feature? Because making the phone not to enter into BFU state on reboot requires affirmative acts, i.e., it must be implemented, which Google did. This only became a ‘bug’, when discovered by others.\n\nRegarding GOS, I’ve already said what I wanted to say. So, no more drama. I am ending it here.\n\nBest regards.",
