    Thanks, you’ve given me the push to look into this more. My current phone is still doing good but I was thinking of what I would do if I needed to replace it.

    Lol know of anything similar for cars?

      I was a cars guy many years back, but usually just rented a nice Mercedes or BMW. Motorcycles were my real passion. But how can I help you? FOSS cars? xD If you like your privacy. Go get an old car without integrated phone or navigation system. Bitches call home all the time :P Can’t really say if it’s even possible to successfully deactivate telemetry and stuff in ANY car brand.

        Haha, yeah just asked because my car is in the same situation, good for now but I only see bad options if I need to replace it.

          I did a little bit of research and cars are beyond being doomed. Biggest problem is the propriertary part in the software. What should work: No sim inside the car, no bluetooth connection from any mobile phone (sound is the only privacy friendly part in there, no phonebook sharing and stuff), and a GPS jammer.
