Daniel is not longer the lead dev he stepped down from public and leadership roles due to harassment. Daniel stepped down due to an intense harassment, bullying and character assassination campaign which had recently escalating to swatting attacks followed by a major influencer jumping on board with the attacks. Attacks have continued and even escalated in some ways since then, including the admin of a Mastodon instance related to a popular podcast deciding without provocation or having any previous interaction with the project taking part not only there but across the web. This person had never communicated with us and chose to start insulting our developers and spreading fabrications about them with the clear aim of directing more harassment towards them. They started with personal attacks on one of our developers , and I repeat, without ever interacting with us in an attempt to discourage users there from using GrapheneOS. Both the influencer and the system admin of the mastodon server both happen to be involved on an infamous site where doxxing against him also took place. Daniel is still a GrapheneOS developer. Our hope is/was that he won't be targeted nearly as much if he doesn't have much of a public role in the project and isn't the leader of the organization or the open source project. Harassment and fabrications targeting him became very extreme. That hope however continues to be challenged to extremis especially when people as above continue to seek him or us out to propagate it.
