No, not really. I am quite concerned about the data leaks associated with
proprietary Android devices. I know there is a fully open-source release of
Android called LineageOS, but I don't know if BRLTTY runs on it. I also don't
know whether the Google Talkback is a security/privacy risk.

I'm not only suspicious about Google, but all proprietary hardware/software
which has an internet access.

Anyway, thanks for your suggestion. I'll consider it if I happen to find an
answer to my open questions.
