Pixel and graphene os is cool
Old Thinkpad plus Linux for weirdo privacy (I use desktop win10)
Mint mobile for cell, I don't believe you need a SSN
Or silent link for data only esim

And I suppose you could go VOIP for calls but now you're really getting paranoid
Unless your CIA or in a sensitive environment where you're being monitored, its probably not worth it
Always use VPN though
Thanks lighthouse. Yes, I am in a sensitive environment so the more private the better. What VPN would you recommend?

You can pay with sats. Their offices got raided by the police: there was nothing there to raid 😂
Thanks Node. I heard they are good, too but the NIP05 (mostr) gives me bad vibes. Unfortunately.
So Lighthouse, another question for you. Where do I find an old IBM Thinkpad and which site do I use to download Linux? And where do I get win10 (as opposed to 365 these days)? Believe or not, I actually had one but that puppy ended up with my ex. To be fair, it was his laptop not mine :)
If you like people: Facebook market place or Craigslist
If you don't like people: eBay
PC repair shop also a good bet
