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?

Chinese distros have backdoors for the Chinese government, intel and amd processors have backdoors for the US government

Are there any proof of that ? (Chinese distros having backdoors).

@CjkOvPDwQW China is a repressive surveillance state with a keen interest in spying on their own people who has conducted incredibly broad state sponsored industrial espionage.

Draw your own conclusions on whether such products are safe.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
