I've been debating buying a burner phone for protests, leaving my main phone elsewhere, and only powering on the burner when it's needed. Probably the only way to bring a phone to a protest.
Buy an older pixel and install Graphene
Keep it off/in a faraday bag at all times, never turn it on at home. Go to elsewhere to set it up.
If they REALLY want you, you will get got.
But there's no reason to make it easy.
You can also buy faraday bags, if you want a phone available but not online. But it's still there physically so burner would still be a good choice.
Just test it first. I got a faraday bag of Amazon and it didn't work.
100%. I tested mine with calls and making sure the wifi and Bluetooth didn't go through.
