Thank you. This.
If you do not control all the code of you computer down to the boot process and firmware then you should not trust it for comms. It gets infinitely worse when baseband chips have their own parallel OSes that have root on whatever Android fork you have on the system SOC. Android devices are an OpSec nightmare chock full of proprietary garbage.
