It’s weaker than Vanadium’s OS native isolation, though it’s nice to see Firefox catching up about two years later

Secondly, when it comes to browsers, the more you hide, the more you stand out, so try to blend in with most people

You stand out more if you have very strong fingerprint protection, which ironically makes you easier to track since you’re an anomaly

Honestly, just use Vanadium on GrapheneOS instead of IronFox

It’s more secure and if your browser gets compromised, your phone’s security goes out the window. I’m fine trading a little privacy for better security

If anything, Democrats present themselves as more competent at deporting and killing people in other countries

True, though it’s pretty normal (and unfortunate) for kids to swear like sailors in their native language

But what I’m actually referring to is the psychological feeling of just being less emotionally attached to your second language when you speak it no matter how old you become

True!

You shouldn’t though. Otherwise how would you learn? Looking back you didn’t know how to act at the time, so try to reframe it

You don’t.

It’s okay to remember your past mistakes and regrets since they help you make better decisions in the future

Valve still collects data about you, so SteamVR isn’t truly private.

If privacy matters to you, look for a PC tethered headset that runs on open source software, so you can avoid telemetry and closed ecosystems

Yeah I might have gone a bit overboard. I said F-Droid because I wanted something that could update Obtainium and also serve as a store to search for open-source apps

Well anyway, I deleted F-Droid to reduce attack surface. Thank you very much!

If your only concern is keeping Google and Microsoft off your back, the carrier advice is optional. Please remember and keep in mind that your phone is a tracking device that always collects your data, and there’s no way around that

1. Don’t use multiple profiles on your private phone, doing so can mix metadata.
2. If you ignore point 1, always close your other profile manually in Settings after switching.
3. Don’t sign in to Google or Microsoft accounts on your GrapheneOS device.
4. Rely on Obtainium and F-Droid for apps.
5. (Optional) Avoid installing Google Play Services.
6. Keep your phone in airplane mode, and set Wi-Fi to turn off automatically one minute after you leave home.
7. Avoid SIM cards, since carriers can track your location with extreme precision.

Ultimately, GrapheneOS is just a de-Googled OS. Don’t walk around with a false sense of security just because you use it.

How would they guarantee the device hasn’t been tampered with? Sure you could use Auditor, but still…
