For my phone, I use Graphene OS. What would be the best desktop Linux option to match the level of security and privacy that GOS provides?

Anything thats not made in America.
What kind of point is that ? Are there any problem with chinese distro ?
Chinese distros have backdoors for the Chinese government, intel and amd processors have backdoors for the US government
Really? About Intel and AMD, how? I’m just curious about that.
Read up on the intel management engine. It’s an extra chip that was included in pretty much every intel CPU since 2008. It’s got pretty scary potential, but no alphabet agency has yet declassified their info on it (think CIA denying any involvement in shipping and selling heroin, but then declassifying documents that proved they shipped heroin in coffins and bodies of dead soldiers).
You’re pretty deep in the tinfoil hat zone now. CPU proprietary black box does not mean the NSA are trying to infiltrate your broken arch setup so they can let their FBI lizard agents steal ur hentai.
Oh for sure, but I’d be really surprised if the super secret black box that can’t be completely expunged from your machine doesn’t have anything to do with some alphabet agency.
After all, we know that NSA approached Linus to put in a backdoor (Linus’s father, Linus), and that NSA linked groups have used Linux backdoor malware in the past.
That might be proof against IME being a backdoor, but it could also be a smoke screen and insurance.
Are there any proof of that ? (Chinese distros having backdoors).

I would not trust a CIA backed Linux distro either, proof or not.
