Take the Fairphone over the Pixel since you’re in Europe

1. Purchase spare chromebook (with cash)
2. Purchase spare SIM (cash)
3. Get TOTP working with spare SIM, link FOSS authenticator app, delink phone number.
4. Throw away SIM.
5. Get a flash drive, wipe, load videos on it.
6. Go to public location, sign into Google account from there, upload video.
7. Remove battery from Chrome book after uploading video, only ever plug it into power in the proximity of WiFi hotspots which can’t be traced to you.
8. Preferably don’t bring your phone with you since they can track you through that

I do agree somewhat. The main argument coming against it is not following the “Unix philosophy” which I’m a proponent for, making systemd annoying.
