Can anybody recommend a cheap Phone that can't be wiretapped or tracked by police I am not going to do asshole things with it
>>107491628Just buy a cheap phone and install lineageOS or other crom but do not install gapps and other shit
no. the broadband processor will always be broadcasting your location and IMEI to cell towers , even without a SIM.get cheap laptop install PureOS on it, install, alomg your non-criminal aquantance, one or all of these three: Session, SimpleX, Jami You're all set. Have fun.
thanks for the advice but its just for making calls and messages on the go so a laptop isnt that practical
>>107492158Alright then, no you can't have a phone that makes SIM calls without being tracked by police. But as the first reply said, you can minimize corpo tracking by installing LineageOS. Hope that helps
>>107491628>can't be wiretapped or tracked by policeHow far up your arse is your head?Pretty much every country going has legally required to companies to 'co-operate' with 'authorities'. It doesn't matter what phone you get, any provider you use will pass on details. They know where their cell towers are. You'll likely connect to more than one, and a little math on the signal strength can place that to within a few square meter.You connect to the network, you'll be tracable.As for wiretapped, you're moving your comms thru their shit. If you aint E2E that mofo, it's interceptable.
Best option is to not carry a phone. That's what I used to do, but after leaving neetdom, I have this job that requires me to have a phone on me for calls, texts, taking pictures, etc. I use a Moto E5 and removed anything non-essential with Universal Android Debloater/ADB from it. That's enough for my use case, since I sort of accept that if I carry a phone I am going to be spied on by the baseband modem and whatnot at least. I also use a prepaid phone with pseudonymous creditials, but that doesn't really matter when the baseband can geolocate you anyway. If you want better privacy, you can get a Pixel and put Graphene on it, or a Lineage compatible phone, then binge watch Bob Braxman and Naomi Brocklywell on Youtube.
>>107492036This. No matter how much GrapheneOS is praised, it can't get around this.
not OP but would getting a cheap android, not putting a SIM in it, and using whatsapp audio when connected to a mcdonald wifi work?
>>107493594Whatsapp is doing exactly what OP fears.
>>107493594And how exactly do you plan to sign in/up to whatsapp while remaining anonymous/untracable/unidentified? + The device itself, with or without SIM leaks your location to law emforcement >>107492036 + picrel
