Hi
I wanted to try and install eOS or GrapheneOS on my Pixel7 because I thought I would be able to somehow "isolate" all apps from other apps. I would then achieve what you managed to do : WhatsApp not being able to know what's happening on the same phone...
Do you think I understood well or am I missing something else ???

@logicite First of all: Stay away from /eOS—it’s far too insecure, poorly maintained, and still connected to Google’s servers via microG. No, that’s not quite how it works: GrapheneOS offers the option to run Google Play Services in a sandbox—but it doesn’t automatically isolate every app in a sandbox on its own. That’s why I have this setup, to make sure Meta (or Google) can’t get access to my data and activities through cross-device tracking and permissions.
