You can spend a few months patching up your phone, slim down your OS.
But it still runs on a Qualcomm receiver chip, Qualcomm has the patents and the market, all roads lead to Qualcomm and their backdoors.
Hopping from cell towers to qualcomm chip on the phone, to the wifi chip, to your PC's Intel Management Engine, vPro or AMD PSP, inject a code to your disk/monitor/videocard/battery's firmware, good luck getting rid of that keystone.
Nothing is safe.
Only way is to use Tom's machine and leave footprints of Dick, and a secondary footprint that leads to Harry, and hope that your packets don't get stored for 10 years and decrypted by an AI in 3.
