Hey.

My phone is a Pixel 8A Graphene OS Phone. I Want to make this phone a Hardended phone. A safe phone. Privacy friendly phone. Not a Watched or tapped into phone. Basically limit the spying and intercepting and get control of the spying mechanisms that may be at play.

The phone has Sandboxed google.play services.

(grapheneos) and 1 profile (owner)

The phone has a kyc sim card. ( currently no way out)

Thanks.

What VPN should I use on my pixel 8a grapheneos phone?

Whatever https://www.privacyguides.org/ recommends. I am not a big VPN user. I care more about using good apps and prefering the web browser over apps and configuring that.
