Hello, I have a Pixel 8A GrapheneOs phone. I Want to make this a Safe phone. A privacy friendly phone. Basically I want to strip any/all tracking features of this phone, whilst making it hard against any adversaries to monitor me/track me, or watch my phone or its activities.

Not doing anything wrong, just want to know what are my best moves with this phone.

What VPN should I use on this phone?

The threat actor is mostly local feds, and doing what’s necessary to stop them getting grips of surveillance.

Thank you.

Mullvad has content and tracking blocking at dns level builtin (enabled in settings). Having it always on you don’t need to use private dns. If you use other profiles then set the private dns to one of mullvads. On my grapheneos install I use google play services only on another profiles then owner and have apps that require it only in those profiles.
