I've been avoiding phones for over a decade.

Whatever you do with data security, messaging and so on, you're using a device that knows where you are at all times. With perhaps centimeter accuracy, using GPS and triangulation from WiFi access points. And all that prevents that from being shared is some software settings. On a device where you're not even root.

Would any of the Linux-capable phones run VirtualBox, with a few VMs?

Is anyone working on a phone that might run Qubes?
