GrapheneOS recommended for domestic abuse victims

GrapheneOS 被推荐用于家庭暴力受害者

In 2026, technology can be a lifeline – or a weapon. For people experiencing domestic violence (DV), tech-facilitated abuse is now one of the most common forms of control. This includes GPS stalking, hidden tracking apps, spyware, image-based abuse, and monitoring of messages or location. 在 2026 年,科技既可以是救命稻草,也可能成为武器。对于遭受家庭暴力(DV)的人来说,科技辅助的虐待已成为最常见的控制手段之一。这包括 GPS 跟踪、隐藏的追踪应用程序、间谍软件、基于图像的虐待以及对信息或位置的监控。

Australian research shows that 99% of domestic violence cases now involve some form of technology-facilitated abuse. In some states, reports have risen by as much as 650% over the past five years. Children are also heavily impacted – studies indicate that 27% of DV cases involve tech-related harm to kids. 澳大利亚的研究表明,99% 的家庭暴力案件现在涉及某种形式的科技辅助虐待。在一些州,过去五年内的相关报告增加了高达 650%。儿童也深受影响——研究显示,27% 的家暴案件涉及对儿童的科技相关伤害。

The good news is that technology can also be used to reclaim safety and independence. A properly configured DV Safe Phone gives survivors powerful tools for privacy, discretion, and control – helping them stay connected while reducing the risk of being tracked or monitored. 好消息是,科技也可以用来重获安全和独立。一部配置得当的“家暴安全手机”(DV Safe Phone)为幸存者提供了强大的隐私、隐蔽性和控制工具,帮助他们在保持联系的同时,降低被跟踪或监控的风险。

At PrivacyPros, our expertly hardened de-Googled Privacy Phones are designed with these exact needs in mind. They offer near-zero telemetry, strong app isolation, physical kill switches, and emergency features that can genuinely help people in high-risk situations. 在 PrivacyPros,我们经过专业加固的“去谷歌化”隐私手机正是为了满足这些需求而设计的。它们提供近乎零的遥测数据、强大的应用程序隔离、物理断路开关以及能够真正帮助高危人群的紧急功能。

Why a Regular Phone Can Be Dangerous in DV Situations

为什么普通手机在家庭暴力情况下可能很危险

Standard smartphones from Apple, Google, or Samsung often share location data, app activity, and other information in the background – even when you think privacy settings are turned on. Abusers can exploit this through: 来自苹果、谷歌或三星的标准智能手机通常会在后台共享位置数据、应用程序活动和其他信息——即使你认为隐私设置已经开启。施暴者可以通过以下方式利用这一点:

  • Spyware and stalkerware apps
  • 间谍软件和跟踪软件
  • Shared accounts or cloud sync
  • 共享账户或云同步
  • Location tracking via cell towers or apps
  • 通过基站或应用程序进行位置跟踪
  • Monitoring of messages and calls
  • 监控信息和通话

A DV Safe Phone significantly reduces these risks by stripping out unnecessary tracking and giving you physical and software controls over what can be accessed. “家暴安全手机”通过剔除不必要的跟踪,并让你在物理和软件层面控制可访问的内容,从而显著降低了这些风险。
