Would love that, but it’s a hard task, since telemetry is baked into Android OS, not to mention in almost all apps in the Play Store.

You can use Briar, BitChat, or Bridgefy to communicate, without having internet connections. I’ve only tried Briar, which works with cell networks, wifi, also bluetooth.

I have Linux Mint installed on my laptop, I just don’t trust M$ Windows with their AI crap.

There are good reasons why you should limit yourself from using cloud based services. Even you are paying for the service, they can change ToS however they want.

And free cloud services the worst of it all, because they want to take all your data., they don’t even care if it’s a confidential company document.

sounds like M$'s real face : Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish

Yes, I guess it’s better than you landing in the United States and a few days later, ICE flies you to El Savador.

According to EFF in the article

Do not wipe your phone

You might think the most protective options are to completely wipe your phone before traveling, use a burner or travel without a phone. But the EFF’s Cope said that could actually raise suspicions.

“People are damned if they do and damned if they don’t,” Cope said. “If you cross the border with no data on your device, that itself can be seen as suspicious.”

Instead, if you want to seem cooperative but do have data or texts stored on your phone that you wouldn’t want to be accessed, Cope suggests deleting that information selectively rather than wiping your whole device.
