I have 2nd hand pixel 8a with grapheneos and i havent putted sim card in it since i have it, in my country i have to have registered sim card, iam afraid of IMEI be linked with sim card and once i put it in im f**ked, the reason i need to put card is to verify bank which need sim card being in device.

I did some research but became dumb from too much information

(sorry for my english :D)

Edit: also i want to be private because of my feature, idk if i wont live in country where propaganda is normal

    Yeah but the difference is is that you can buy esim more privately. You can do it online from your home. There are services that provide anonymous (ie via crypto) esims with mobile data, calling, sms, even roaming. If I remember correctly, Silent Link is one of them

      But will it be safe? Wouldnt that mean that somebody who owns this card would somehow have access to my device?
