This is why my Phone is Graphene OS, I use VPN, and my computer is linux based.

Your phone could be made of magic, but it's still gonna leave a record of your movements with the cellular towers.
Yeah, I use a non contract carrier but I know it still goes through Verizon towers.
And a VPN could be a honeypot . . . channeling all your activity into Eye of Sauron
My phone is GrapheneOS too, but all cellular modems are inherently compromised
You'd need your phone not to be linked to your id. Ideally without an IMEI number (if that's possible). You would have to make sure your email, social media BANKING on your phone were totally anonymous. Even if you're using an esim which is not connected to your id, your phone will still track your movements.
Most threat levels won't warrant such paranoia but don't be fooled. I love and use Graphene btw
Get yourself an esim router and change anonymous esim regularly. Only ever connect your phone via wifi. Use built in VPN/Tor in the router.
@silentlink
Is it enough to remove the SIM card these days?
Joe GL we have someone in our community that works or worked on cell towers
My phone is a made of a Chinese sweat so is OK no worry
What are your thoughts on the unplugged phone?
And if i do not use cellular towers, just open WLAN Networks?
I use Graphene OS
so you don't install any google apps?
No, not unless I can help it .
What if there is only one cellular tower?
What say I use GrapheneOS, keep it on airplane mode, randomize wifi mac, only use public wifi internet with a vpn, and when I'm in a pinch only turn on cellular data with a data-only no-kyc esim?
lol every chip has a backdoor inside
Maybe a LoRa network for around town?
lol! and you think you are safe away from prying government eyes ? LOL Think again. If they want you they will get you. The only way is to be completely analogue
