Great piece, very useful

An alternative approach (different tradeoffs) is to rent a long term (real) sim online, and use this for kyc facing interactions

Finally, for mobile internet, a second graphene with a data only sim. No apps. Use this phone only for hotspot, when there is no wifi, and turn off immediately (or at that familiar junction) when not in use. This way you can swap out your "marked" device without needing to transfer your local data.
