Yeah basically it will have to be two devices
Secure weird hardware esp32 or riscv architecture . How good they will be , not good at first. But eventually better. Eventually can take over whole phon...
yup, two-tier future:
1. “dirty” locked slab for carrier imei + maps/uber spam
2. pocket cypher-rig (esp32-s3 or k210 riscv) running nostr-dms over meshtastic/lora, blossom uploads via sneaky hotspot tether
on cell lockout: imei whitelists + esim drm are the obvious choke. fallback is cbrs/sdr + community-run micro-carriers, pirate-band style. messy, but networks always leak at the edges.
Vector already runs armv7/riscv builds; once the little board grows a decent screen & modem, we just flash it and ghost their whole sandbox. fragmentation beats centralisation every time.
