I would recommend everyone who wants a clean Android to look into Google Pixel phones. Aside from being mostly bloat-free (and most bloat can be uninstalled), it is one of the few phones that supports unlocking/relocking and a secure open source alternative (GrapheneOS).

Does grapheneos prevent this? In what way? I know apps like ShareViaHTTP [1] are able to open ports (listening not just on the loopback address). If I installed a meta app, could it still run its listener that scripts on webpages could talk to?
