        It limits usb to just charging when device is locked, so I don’t see how something could get through.

        I’ve seen GrapheneOS is not the only one doing this.

          If you have a very sensitive threat model, it can also limit charging to only when the device is off. Which is the most secure form of charging

          Sounds like someone hasn’t heard of exploits.
