The Ledger debacle that caused the leak of customer information (down to their home addresses) is making me hesitant in purchasing a hardware wallet. There is ColdCard that claims they only hold customer information for tax reasons and then they delete it, but I'm not convinced.

You can always buy hardware wallet in your local area and pay with cash, some devices are even sold in Best Buy, but there is always alternative of ordering online to PO boxes and using alternative personal information, temp email and phone number.
But if you are going down this path than you should do this for every other purchase you are doing online, not just for hardware wallets.
You can also make your own open source DIY signing device like SeedSigner (using Raspberry Pi) or using ESP32 devices to do something similar.
Here is one list of devices you can check out:

I've found this resource, is this proper procedure? The guide is incomplete though as it doesn't say how to generate the address from the mnemonic. Could someone fill in the rest?

There is nothing wrong with that option, you just need dedicated laptop and you use it only for crypto, and flash drive can be used for TailsOS.
Only advantage of hardware wallets and signing devices is smaller size and easy portability.[/list]

I was wondering why ColdCard didn't make your list as I've heard many good things about it, and then I ended up slam-bang in the middle of your debate with nvK on licensing lol. Objectively-speaking (completely disregarding any licensing issues), what do you think of the Mk4?
