Does GrapheneOS provide Factory Reset Protection? No, since this is strictly a theft deterrence feature, not a security feature, and the standard implementation depends on having the device tied to an account on an online service. The only advantage would be encouraging thieves to return a stolen device for a potential reward after realizing that it has no value beyond scrapping it for parts. Google's Factory Reset Protection ties devices to a Google account using a tiny, special region of persistent state not wiped by a factory reset. It prevents a thief from wiping the device to a fresh state for resale without being stuck at a screen for authenticating with the Google account persisted on the device after wiping. It would be possible to make an implementation not reliant upon an online service where the user has the option to enable Factory Reset Protection and is given a seed phrase required to use the device after wiping data from recovery. However, since this has no security value and the ability to deter theft is questionable, implementing this is an extremely low priority. Providing the option to disable wiping from recovery would be simpler, but would be incompatible with features designed to wipe data automatically in certain cases. This will not be implemented by GrapheneOS since it isn't a good approach and it conflicts with other planned features.
