- Aerbil313 3y agoI once built a cell phone from scratch. They do have high peak power consumption, and I did connect it to the battery rail directly, along with some capacitors to handle the surges.
- bigiain 3y agoI have a Pinephone, which has hardware switches to turn off potential privacy destroying features. But it's even more secure than that - them made it so it's such a poor phone that I never managed to get it into use as a daily driver phone for more than a day or two at a time! The most private device is one you never bother carrying!
