I feel like the closest you can come to the dream of a phone that is secure against state actors today would be a google pixel phone running graphene os.
I feel like the best counterexamples to this are Singapore(82% of the population lives in public housing which makes it affordable for local residents) and Vienna(25% of the city lives in publicly funded social housing which decreases costs for everyone).
