One thing that annoys me is the ability that my mobile carrier has to just throw ad popups.
Is that something that GrapheneOS fixes?

Wtf‽ I didn't know that was possible.
Your carrier does what now?
I have a pixel 8a with a TIM SIM card and every once in a while I see an ad popup on my phone.
Go to [Settings] » [Apps] » [Special app access] » [Display over other apps] and check if any preinstalled carrier apps or anything suspicious has this permission granted.

Like a popup how? What kind of dialog is it? It's more likely to be an app that's bundled by your carrier than your carrier MitM'ing ads into your stuff which is kinda what it sounded like

Can't you just change your carrier?
