İm want to use Telegram on my GOS Pixel 7 and without the risk being tracked or infected by an Virus... İts maybe important to mention, that İ am located in Germany and maybe @Nuttso have some good advise for me ( da ich gesehen habe, dass du anscheinend auch aus DE bist und Erfahrung mit den Dingen hast).
First of all i use my device with mullvad VPN, because there is low chance they are cooperate with law inforcement. Second i organiced a anonym pre paid Sim Card from another Country for the account registration. İ will use the Sim Card in a second device and only for receving the registration code, after this process, the card will not be used anymore, to avoid being tracked about the registrated number in Telegram.
Second step will be creating a user Profile at my Phone, wich is only for telegram. As İ found out, that for the first registration the google play devices are necessary, i wanted to know wich saftey reducing effect it has, in relation to be in clonfict with law enforcement.
İf the registration process is done, i will use the Foss Version from FDroid and delete the google services.
Then i would use Telegram just with my vpn and mobile internet (no privat wifi ose.). İ think about to use sim card for cameras, wich has only acsess to mobile data and no number (call/sms) function, if this would be a safer option. At least i dont know how safe the whole thing is, after i just use a VPN and the GOS... İs there anymore i can do to be not tracked or infected while using telegram ?
