Process Transparency
Every step of our device preparation is documented. You receive a checklist of exactly what was modified and why.
Available for Configuration
Privacy, prepared with discipline.
Carefully configured Google Pixel devices for individuals requiring strict operational security and data sovereignty. No absolute guarantees—just transparent, technically sound preparation.
Foundation of Trust
We do not rely on security through obscurity. Our process is documented, our boundaries are clear, and our limits are public.
Lawful Use Only
We serve journalists, executives, and privacy-conscious individuals. We do not configure devices for illicit purposes.
Device Sovereignty
We retain no keys, passwords, or recovery codes. Once the device leaves our facility, you are the sole administrator.
Audit-Ready
We provide cryptographic hashes of installed operating systems so you can independently verify authenticity upon arrival.
Honesty in limitations.
The privacy industry is saturated with false promises. We believe trust requires establishing clear boundaries on what technology can actually achieve.
What We Do
- Source pristine, unlocked hardware directly from authorized channels to prevent supply-chain tampering.
- Install privacy-focused operating systems (e.g., GrapheneOS) using officially documented procedures.
- Harden baseline settings, restrict telemetry, and document every configuration change made.
- Ship devices in tamper-evident packaging with verifiable audit logs.
What We Do Not Do
- Provide impossible “100% anonymous” or “government-proof” guarantees. Operational security relies on your habits.
- Pre-configure illegal software, automated wiping triggers, or tools designed for unlawful evasion.
- Retain your device PINs, recovery seeds, or biometric data. If you lose your passcode, we cannot recover your data.
- Guarantee compatibility with all mainstream banking or corporate MDM applications.

Standard crypto: direct path and lower friction, but on-chain activity is usually more directly traceable.
Express crypto: streamlined faster flow with moderate privacy tradeoffs versus the private route.
Private via Houdini: adds extra routing and separation to reduce direct linkage, with higher fees; not absolute anonymity.
The limits of technology.
Why we exist, why you should be skeptical of the privacy industry, and exactly where our responsibility ends and yours begins.
Skepticism as a Baseline
The commercial privacy sector is flooded with marketing that preys on anxiety. Vendors sell “encrypted phones” and “untraceable sims” while hiding the technical realities of modern cellular networks. True privacy is not a device you buy; it is a discipline you practice.
Our Operational Boundaries
When you purchase a configured device from DAETM, we serve as the technical implementer. We remove the risk of supply-chain interdiction during transit to our facility, we handle the complex flashing of secure operating systems, and we establish hardened baselines.
We maintain strict adherence to lawful use. We do not provide services designed to evade legal investigations, nor do we affiliate officially with the open-source projects whose software we utilize.
Vendor evaluation checklist
- Do they publish their exact configuration steps? (We do).
- Do they retain recovery keys? (We do not).
- Do they clearly define what apps will break? (We do).
