If you were to get a new phone today that places value on privacy/not tracking, what path would you go?<p>Trying to strike a balance between privacy, usability, stability, and price I'm finding it hard to find a decent option.
Tracking by whom?<p>If you're worried about advertisers - you have two choices. On any phone you can root, replace the HOSTS file using <a href="https://adaway.org/" rel="nofollow">https://adaway.org/</a><p>On phones you cannot root, use <a href="https://blokada.org/index.html" rel="nofollow">https://blokada.org/index.html</a> to create a tracker blocking VPN.<p>Run Firefox as your main browser. Use sandboxed apps for Facebook, Twitter, etc.
If we talk about a simple phone just an old Nokia 3310 would do it.<p>In terms of smartphones the Blackberry KEYone claims to be the most secure Android Smartphone.<p>(disclaimer: I have not used this smartphone and I am not a security specialist.)
