OK, apparently there's a bug in the installer as it should not ask where to install the OS since whatever the answer is, it will install it on the EMMC.
Anyway, now I have Phosh on my Pinephone, with all buttons switched to "cut" so nothing should be leaked as of now.
When/if I connect it to the Wifi or Ethernet, things will change though.
I recently learned that the hostname is transmitted to the router (yes, that I learned it recently shows that I'm a noob, but even noobs deserve privacy), so that's quite a huge privacy issue. I guess it's easy to spoof though.
Any other leak that I'm not aware of even if they seem obvious to everyone else ?
Also, has there been any progress made about spoofing the Wifi/bluetooth fingerprinting problem ?
