I doubt its even environmentally/economically sustainable for a whole crowd of millions to just buy burners to discard after every protest. Too much ewaste. Is there a strategy that everyone can use without generating too much ewaste?

    Depending on what that means

    It means they can find out where it was purchased and by whom.

    Just a regular old midrange smartphone. E.g. the original Samsung Galaxy A-series.

    Still runs Android.

    Some of them will, sure

    All of them. Again, this is required by Android ToS.

    Google is not available in China

    Are we talking about China? If you live in China your cell phone is the least of your concerns. They don’t need it.
