Does Netguard require to be rooted? Does it show the traffic per app?
this seems like what they did on the iodé phone,
Well what's wrong with a bootloader unlocked if your device is encrypted?
yea it's so annoying to unlock the bootloader on Mi phones.. Samsungs are less a pain

Does DivestOS come with bootloader relocked? If it is the case what devices are supported?

Discovered Qwant through iodéOS, a pretty good privacy oriented mobile OS. I used to use ddgo but qwant is not so bad
That's good, I wish they could do some sort of data transmissions audit as well like iodé does with android!

Speaking of Little Snitch, I suggest you look at 'iodé', an android phone with similar features built-in the OS.As far as I know this is the only true firewall on android

agree. Even better with same reasonable level of convenience is iodé

lineageOS is fine, though without play services | microG heaps of apps are broken.. I'd recommend switching to a non-AOSP based OS if you won't use those services, but if you stay on android you should definitely check iodéOS

I invite you to try iodéOS, where they stripped out Google's DNS & SUPL servers, and allow you to directly select the location module of your choice ..
