I hear many people say that the Google Pixel is good for privacy, but is it?

I’m asking this because I find it weird, of all the companies, Google having the most “privacy”.

    Graphene only supports Pixels officially because of how easily you can unlock the bootloader

      That’s not the only reason, you can also unlock the bootloader of a FairPhone very easily and they’re still not supported.

      it’s because of the Titan M chip, not because of ease of bootloader unlocking. Pixel’s have much higher hardware security with only iPhones and their secure enclave matching it afaik.
