I want to mainly use it for privacy over its "security". I don't know what makes everyone fine with running it on fucking google pixels. Is there some kind of "low security" version or something for other phones? I'm so tired of certain organizations infiltrating privacy communities and making people believe in improving "security" by voluntarily giving up on privacy and using even non free software like that insecurities blog and other people.

Depends on the exact model but you'll most likely need a special unlock code which you can't get anymore unless you buy it on a questionable website. Huawei phones are not meant to be unlocked. Buy a used Xiaomi instead

@GolfNovemberUniform Ok, thanks. My idea was to use old phones discarded by relatives so I can’t choose the model. Well, I’ll wait until they rule out another more easily model
