You should look up "baseband radio vulnerabilities".

It is still unknown how many radios have code that might allow a back door similar to Intel's mgmt engine. But the firmware blobs are all closed, and very few ppl know what they actually contain.

If you don't want to be tracked, get an open platform device.

And in light of the tools out there that can fingerprint you by a lot of metrics, if you truly don't want to be tracked, at all, don't use connected technology.
