Looking into protecting myself via flashing #graphene_os on my #Pixel3a - which iirc I paid $500 for and still use daily for everything
My phone is now apparently only worth $12, and will continue to spy on me because its "out of support" - even for GrapheneOS @GrapheneOS
I realize the technical security reasons for this, but like, I still use my Pixel3a for gaming and other high intensity activities
There does not seem to be any options;
I cannot afford to upgrade
#security #opsec #infosec
There was #DivestOS made for devices that were no longer "in support" but apparently that project got canceled at the start of the year.
My brain is just going crazy that the #USGov is gonna come after me by subpoenaing my data from google, even though I have long since turned all privacy-sharing settings off on my phone.
These older devices may not be the most powerful, but they still can be useful, especially for those without access to better phones.
@anyDr0id Thank you
"Ubuntu Touch" via @ubports seems like it might be the best next option for my device.
Seems like I cant escape the #Linux command line these days - now I'm gonna have it in my pocket.
Tech trial by fire, until you no longer notice the fire and you just live in it as second nature. (I was a life long windows user until I was forced off #Windows10 recently)
