Boycott Google! Even buying second hand pixels benefit google, because people know that it’s easy to sell them for a good price, so they ate more likely to buy new ones.
Also, graphene might offer more physical security, but there are plenty of other options for privacy focused ROMs out there that work with Manny phones.
GrapheneOS is by far the best choice for privacy. As for buying a google phone, who cares. Buy good products. Boycott bad products. Fairphone is a shitty choice for privacy, as they made it clear they are not interested. Why reward a company making a shitty product, instead of rewarding a company for making a good product (Pixel) even if different departments of the same company make shitty products?
And I boycott google and support companies like Fairphone on an ethical basis.
Google is supporting Israel in the Palestinian genocide, ice, plus all the shitty stuff they do around AI, advertising and destroying our privacy. It seems very funny to me that you give money to a company you disagree with enough to install a different OS in their product because of privacy invasion.
On the other hand, while far from perfect, companies like Fairphone are attempting to break the exploitation of people in the supply Chaim of electronics.

What’s funny about it? Tor was created by US spy agencies. So what? If it is a useful tool, it is a useful tool. I don’t care who made it.

That is a nice sentiment, but if their product sucks (security wise), it sucks. And there is no excuse for outright refusing to work with GrapheneOS on improving their phones. If they don’t care about their own customers, I am not going to go out of my way to support them.
The security issues with Fairphone with e/os is also basically just the opinion of the grapheneIS developer who pretty much shits on anything that’s not GrapheneOS.
I’ve never seen anything independent about it, and most complaints were addressed by murena anyway.
I agree that GrapheneOS devs are not a trustworthy source regarding security of other OS and Idk anything about e/os. But I know enough about cybersecurity to know the missing HW on Fairphones is a serious issue.

I love my Fairphone 6 with e/os for example.

Speak for yourself. I love my Fairphone.

I am.

Could you elaborate on the HW part, or link to a explanation? I’d like to learn more about it.
I think a good place to start is reading up on MTE and Attestation.
If you want to see more, look at the list of required hardware features in the GrapheneOS FAQ and just google them.
