II'm not interested in carrier phones because of all the garbage on them, and I'm not paying an "activation fee" for sticking my SIM in a new device. The 8T is pretty hack friendly, and i need a rootable device because even stock Android has too much garbage on it - my 2013 MotoG still needed probably 25 different modules and applications disabled or deleted.

The One Plus 8T ticks all the boxes, it's easily bootloader unlockable, is decently powerful, and is mid-price in the phone world, and doesn't have stupid voice response systems on buttons that you can't disable. What's your thoughts?

Yes, but "privacy" isn't a thing when you're using a phone. Your carrier is tracking everything you do and everything you look at.
