Looking for some help with my Oneplus Nord CE3 Lite. I have had this phone for a couple months and looking to harden this phone make it a safe privacy friendly phone and avoid the constant monitoring and spying and being tracked and monitored. I want to limit the surveillance and monitoring best i can with this phone. Not interested in CUSTOM ROM and there isnt any available for my phone right now. So what is my options without that and how do i make this a safe phone?

Thanks

    Hmm, I wonder which countries this applies to… It’s crazy how you missed the irony of this

    And your data will become a weapon in the event of a world war 3.

    Dude… You’re living in some video game fantasy world. Your activity browsing social media and watching over-confident youtubers will not give China an edge in world war 3. I guarantee you.

    On Calyx, most android apps require Google services. How do you address this? Calyx’s solution for this is providing microG, a stripped down Google services. Still, they’re Google services…

      Most of my apps are FOSS without Google services.

          So Calyx comes with a Tor app and you can selectively punt apps over the Tor connection.

          I’d recommend everything you possibly can should go down Tor, but I do know some things can break. I usually keep one of my browsers out and the other in.

              Your model of phone has no bearing on my answer. Tor.

      microG is optional. Additionally, your claim that “most Android apps require Google services” is unverified and depends heavily on the user and where their apps are sourced.
