Don't hand over your email. Don't hand over your name. Don't hand over your social media. Don't hand over any personally identifiable information to use Bitcoin, no matter how new and shiny the latest toy is. The biggest gaping security hole is the one you dig yourself.

Don't use mobile wallets of any kind. Use full node.

Full node? Yes. Cold storage? Yes, if you are hodling and have shit to put aside. Don't know about you but I need a wallet on the street. That's how I roll.

When you have mobile wallet regardless of how works (server backend or spv) google/apple knows you using bitcoin. Dojo will remove reliance on server so that's better for sure. On the other hand i know what you saying...

Lots of anti lite client shit flying around recently. Total denial of reality as it is lived on the street, imo.

Google/apple and mobile phone architecture is spyware galore. Gsm chip for example is connected to memory bus and can read any memory location. That Librem phone trying to do things right both hardware and software wise.

> Gsm chip for example is connected to memory bus and can read any memory location Whether or not a component is part of the SoC isn't directly connected to whether or not it's isolated. Separate chips often have DMA, and SoC components usually have better IOMMU configuration.

The claim you're repeating is incorrect. It's a falsehood propagated as part of marketing for products that are making a dishonest attempt to distinguish themselves from existing mainstream devices while they are objectively delivering hardware offering less privacy and security.

Can you breakdown your arguments?

What do you want broken down? The claim you're repeating about cellular basebands is untrue. Many hardware components typically have DMA access, including off-die components like Wi-Fi, and it doesn't mean they aren't isolated. It depends on the IOMMU and driver implementations.

Did you have this discussion with

@Puri_sm

? I would love to hear their response. It's interesting topic and opinions are polarizing.

Replying to

It's not my opinion that the statement you're making about basebands is untrue. A component being on the SoC doesn't mean it isn't isolated. A component being on a separate chip doesn't mean it is isolated. Those are objective reality is that it depends on the implementation.
