Ootl: should I be looking up at this phone and OS combo? I'm not entirely happy with mine, I have a Motorola android.

graphene is a good os. the pixel series i'm coming to believe sucks ass because google refuses to make a device that just fucking works (fastboot sucks). do your own threat analysis, of course, but consider other options in the privacy os space if you're looking to reuse old hardware or a more ethical device company

If your threat model includes:

going to protests
crossing international boarders
interacting with the police

Then GOS is pretty much the only viable option.
