Sorry about that.

The link to purchase the de-Googled phone is this: https://abovephone.com/?above=pap

The link to install Graphene OS on your own phone is this: https://grapheneos.org/install/

If you want to learn more about de-Googled phones, I did an interview with Ramiro that went deep. See it here: https://privacyacademy.com/above-phone/

Thank you Glenn! 👍👍Also there's another issue that's come up for us people who love internet privacy and security! Proton VPN's latest update is terrible! They've changed the free VPN service and people on the free plan now can't choose their own servers anymore, Proton chooses at random which servers free subscribers can access now! I just did my regular update to the Proton app on the Google store and I looked through the reviews for Proton and people are extremely unhappy with these changes to the free VPN service! I sent Proton and extensively long email about this change myself complaining! I was planning to upgrade to a paid Proton subscription but I don't want to now! Could you please recommend another good VPN service to people! I know other VPN's don't offer free subscriptions like Proton but I would rather pay for a service that I trust! I don't trust Proton anymore and neither do other people! This change that Proton has made to the free VPN subscription is a deal breaker for a lot of people, including myself! I was wondering if you knew why Proton made this change? But it's not good and this is going to hurt Proton! I don't recommend Proton anymore! I'm tolerating Proton VPN right now until I get a new de-googled phone then I'm moving on to another VPN service but I don't any really good and trustworthy VPN's!

Hi Amii. I don't recommend the free version of the VPN. If you want another suggestion for a VPN, try iVPN.net or Mullvad.net

Thank you Glenn! Yeah other tech people that I listen too also recommend these 2 VPN services! But out of all the different tech people out there I trust your recommendations Most of all! So thank you! 😊 And of course any free service isn't meant to be long term! I really wanted to upgrade with Proton when I got my new phone but I'm going to check out these other 2 VPN's! 👍👍
