you'd be surprised to find out that's not entirely true...I'm sure it stops some, but there's a lot more it doesn't stop

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.

This is a developer setting on my samsung, i think most phones have it

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
