Not in particular, but a good place to check would be websites for local bookstores in US states with a strong native American presence, such as NM and AZ

For an everyday use laptop/tablet, I'd also like to know. PostmarketOS is a good bet for switching Surfaces to Linux, but not all of the hardware features are working yet.

What you ask for is impossible to prove, let alone test, without a rigorous definition of "insightful" or "accurate".

I really like heliboard. It works without network permissions, has autocorrect, and can do emojis

Exactly. Maybe they should ask the president to do another PR stunt to help sales. I hear advertising on the white house lawn worked great for Tesla's stock price. He should serve McDonald's on the white house lawn next. /s

Already bought most of the electronics and other imported goods I plan on needing in the coming months. Not from Amazon when I can avoid it.

On a positive note, there's a big leopard eating Bezos' face rn.

It'll be interesting to find out if this research got IRB approval prior to the study

If the apps don't work without network access and they don't have an obvious need for network access, then I don't want them on my phone. If that's the case, then either app is poorly made or it is being used to spy on people with unnecessary telemetry.
