#2 and #3 are fearmongering arguments and total horseshit, excuse the strong language.
Should either of those things happen the bootloader puts up a big bright flashing yellow warning screen saying "Someone hacked your device!"
I use a Pixel device and run GrapheneOS, the bootloader always pauses for ~5 seconds to warn me that the OS is not official.

- dns_snek 7mo agoNo, they've presented a nonsense argument which Apple uses to ban all unofficial software and firmware as if it had some merit.
