Even beyond that, most non-US phones don’t support western hemisphere bands. The EU makes some fantastic handsets, but they use modems that limit function on the other side of the pond.
So it is purely a function of “won’t connect”.
Although, to your privacy point, perhaps not getting signal is actually the bold move that wins.
