Been putting a lot of work into degoogling my life, and I’m looking to move to GrapheneOS at some point in future. Still a total noob when it comes to tech, but more to the point…

I’ve been a Google Fi subscriber for a few years at this point, and was always a fan of how strong the cell service is. Now that I’m trying to drop google wherever possible, I feel kinda lost when it comes to what cell provider to switch over to. I feel like most everyone I’ve spoken to has a laundry list of complaints about their providers having terrible cell coverage or overpriced data rates. What do you people use for cell service? What’s the best option if I’m looking for security and privacy as well as a decently strong cell coverage?

  • Not a customer but am planning on moving to JMPChat. Like Google Fi, it’s a VoIP (voice over internet protocol) service so coverage should be the same as Fi.

    A data plan is available which will connect with cell towers but the company claims your location will always be obscured. I can’t say how that is done. I use another voip service called voip.ms and just leave my phone in airplane mode unless I need to use my data plan. Encase you are wondering about voip.ms, there is no privacy with that service.

    Can be purchased without any PII (personally identifiable information) and they accept crypto.
