@privacyguides @privacy would really love to ditch my smartphone for a dumb phone. I’m skeptical that my calls would no longer be #E2EE I’ve seen the Punky phone that uses Pigeon for messaging but idk about that price 😅 Any thoughts? #privacy #signal

    You won’t get much privacy from a dumbphone.

    I had the Punkt. and sold it. Things might be better now, but Signal had delays…up to 2 hours sometimes to receive a message.

    KaiOS probably shares data (no proof or sources for this, just guessing). That is a large chunk of the available phones, depending on where you live.
