So, how do I know that GrapheneOS is not a honeypot for the really big fish? At this point it seems if you really want to be safe, you have to add obscurity (in addition to conventional best practices). Like changing the pinout on your USB port so the exploit device can't connect.

I thought about this for a moment, reminds me of ANOM company. But isn't GraphaneOS open source?

Changing USB pins layout sounds like interesting idea.
