I have seen more (client-owned) La Cie drives fail than I can remember. I wouldn't touch their crap with a 10 foot cable. Their on-board hardware controllers are the worst, cheapest garbage I've encountered on the "name brand" market.

For some reason, I don't think the supreme court would agree with that figure.
Yes! Murphy's Stout is also available in the US. Might not be as good as yours tho
The main problem I see you running into is that if they decide for any reason to go after you (even just cause now they want your domain), it won't matter if they have a solid legal standing or not. They can afford to tie you up in court indefinitely, and you will likely be unable to outlast them.
Source: This is exactly what happened to my family. We have the same last name as a large corporation, and in the early days of the internet we registered a domain based on a name-related slogan they had used in an older commercial compaign. We were just hosting a basic family website and email, and clearly had no conflicting or overlapping IP. We even checked in advance - they did not own a trademark for the slogan or the name.
A few years later, they decided the wanted the domain for themelves, but instead of offering us a fair price to purchase, they first filed a trademark for the slogan and then sued us for the domain. If we'd had the funds to continue fighting we would have eventually won, but we're just a middle class family and they're a large multi-national corporation with near infinite funds to pay their lawyers. We lost the domain, and it cost us a small fortune in legal fees fighing it.
Proceed with caution.
I still prefer 'Xitter'
If for personal access only, ZeroTier might solve your use case.
If you buy a new Pixel and then run an alt rom like graphene or lineage, you're most likeley costing Google money. I believe they manufacture the Pixel at a small loss because they expect to make their money back harvesting and selling your personal data. Denying them that should mean you get decent hardware at a fair price, without really "supporting" Google as much as you fear. I could be wrong, but I've definitely seen that mentioned before.
