I have de-googled my Pixel Pro 7 (refurbished) with GraphenOS. 🥳

One question before I declare this my first victory in the police-state-data wars. Is there anything else I should disable on the hardware side to make sure Google can't spy anymore? Microphone, drivers, etc. ?

If so, what's the best way?

Also, GrapheneOS comes with a duress pin that will wipe your phone when entered leaving a clean install.

F-Droid is great for FOSS apps
