tinfoil hat on It's obviously Apple funding this. They know most android users won't buy apples, they just want to weaken Google.

Could you imagine if apple created a Sub, where they made grapheneos iphones? Google would lose billions

I think you are harshly overestimating how many people use GrapheneOS or even care about what it stands for.

Many would just buy because it's made by apple yk

GrapheneOS goes against everything Apple stands for, how does this even make remotely sense?

If somebody is buying a phone just because it's made by apple, they were never going to buy an android in the first place. Google would be entirely unaffected by this.
