This is kinda paranoid speech. GrapheneOS and Tor remain two of the best projects out there for privacy. I'd love to hear of other open alternatives, if any.

..."I don't trust google hardware, but I trust hardware from a dictatorial controlling regime" also does not really help your argument, sorry.

Besides, they seem to be working with some OEM to get their own phone out.

I'd love to receive daily updates on this, but it's a new development, updates are scarce and this things take time.

I hope sometime they'll collaborate with fairphone and others.

Nice try. First you call names, then you complain about phones with dictatorial origins while both of them come from exactly the same origin, that point is moot.

Even worse security practice to use the software and hardware from exactly the same OEM in terms of security. There is a reason why open implementations are important on the cybersec field, precisely to avoid "trust" but move into the side of "verify" since they need to inter-operate.
