Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer (www.androidauthority.com)

TLDR: Drug dealers in Catalonia have started to adopt GrapheneOS en masse leading to Catalan police suspecting anyone with a Google Pixel is a drug dealer

Glances at my new Pixel, Welp, I guess I ain't ever goin' to Catalonia. Not that I was planning to go there anyway.

***Tinfoil conspiracy: Maybe this a scare tactic to keep the British out of Spain.

Installing Graphene doesn't lessen the danger of your Pixel bursting into flames because of the old and dangerous batteries.

Maybe it helps

Doesn't a Google Pixel device come with its own OS image by default, independent of Graphene OS? Is there some kind of step that we're missing here?
