This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Such as?
I've looked, and I can't find one. The best I found are:
I went with a Google Pixel 8 w/ GrapheneOS. I don't have any of fancy AI features that Google advertises because they all rely on Google Play services (no thanks), but it works competently as a phone, has 7+ years of promised SW support, and gets a decent repair score (not perfect, but everything important seems serviceable).
No one likes the option, but Tesla uniquely will let you opt out of all car <-> Tesla communications. Don't buy full self driving as I don't think that works opted out. Definitely don't subscribe to premium connectivity as opting out disables connectivity.
Is there a guarantee that works? As in, there's no way to locate my car if stolen? Because that's what I want.
If there's a way for Tesla to access my car remotely after opting out, there's a way for them to change the terms of the sale and require phoning home. I want technical guarantees, not promises backed by a mutable service agreement.
Reporters seemed to believe them. It's not at all common though so I don't know if it has been tested to a convincing point.
