I've been thinking about this....one thing that I can really wrap my head around yet (@siggy47?)

Since the 6a has eSIM - is it possible to get a US Voice / Text / Data account with no kyc and pay via bitcoin? I've been looking around for this and most such accounts appear to be data-only.

I think @TonyGiorgio has a lot of information in this area, but I can't find the post.

I bought a pixel phone and put graphene OS on it. I don’t have any Google play services on it and because of that, I cannot use an eSIM. I learned the hard way it had to get a refund.

Also, you can’t use android auto… and there’s a few other things, but whatever. We use Graphene not for the convenience, but for the privacy
