I think the last paragraph OP posted really highlights the niche risk it poses.
Indeed, it does.
The GrapheneOS part of things feels a little baity.
I am not affiliated with GrapheneOS in any way. I have mentioned GrapheneOS because it is the only Android-based, open source, privacy and security-focused mobile operating system I’m aware of which offers the functionality to disable sensors for each app while also happening to be recommended by PrivacyGuides as the best choice when it comes to privacy and security. If you happen to know of better alternatives, please provide your reasoning and I will gladly list them too.
