Question: how do you deal with the fact that ProtonMail can theoretically track you? (At least from the last time i checked) For that reason i prefer countermail
Another question: which phone model would you reccomend for grapheneOS?
All email providers can track you, read your emails, do whatever else Google and Microsoft does. Email by design, is not secure or private and you should not be using email if you're concerned that Proton potentially tracking you is harmful.
Yeah as another said, any email provider can track you. If your threat model has that as a concern then you should always be logging into your email with a vpn on.
As for GrapheneOS I think the Pixel 8 series is most recommended. MTE was a huge security boost. The staff also says do not get anything lower then a pixel 6 as they are to close to end of life.
