GrapheneOS is good if you've got to carry one. The point is never to forget that if you're carrying a phone, you're still being tracked, even if you're limiting the damage from app-based threats. It is baked into the design oftheinfrastructure: if you can see the network, the network can see you. And it takes notes.

What about Pinephone Pro with the modem disabled by the hardware toggle or Librem 5 with the modem removed or disabled via the switch?

Just a curious question if you don't mind, what do you think about starlink technology? Do you think it will be better than traditional phone carriers in terms of privacy and features? Do you think it is a viable alternative?

"if you can see the network, the network can see you. And it takes notes." Even when I leave my phone somewhere and go for a quiet stroll, I pass an uncountable number of cameras. It's packed with them here. There's no peace from the networks except out gently bobbing on the water ⛵🌊

The hardware is not secure, nor is software. Just flash GOS or Divestos and put limiting amount of information. Better security can lead to better privacy. Nothing is ironclad but GOS dose the most reasonable moves.
