No. Then again I don't use cell phones other than text messaging or calls. I won't connect them to the internet and I shut off data completely on them plus I only get basic calling plans. Now I have picked up a pinephone and I like it however I have had issues with my cell company using it for some reason and the only reason I can see for these odd issues is that it is not a phone they sell. Would be nice to have competition in my region.
I carry around a laptop where I go and it serves my needs nicely. Also runs Linux so I'm not worried too much about issues there, other than the CPU which is Intel based but I've looked into that as well.
It's not that I'm super paranoid, but it doesn't hurt to look into things yourself and research matters independently of the fact checkers.
