Er maybe it’s not smart to have smart electronics after all. We’re being spied on, tracked and controlled. Never have I wanted so badly to live off grid in the bush.

I mean what do you think your phone is?
my phone is not smart, and it has a removable battery.
Oh, same as mine!
I worked in IT for a while, it gives you an appreciation for less integrated devices.
I've always hated my smart phone. Only have it when I'm separated from my husband and we need to keep in touch, i.e. shopping mall. Otherwise, I never use it.
It's still a microphone, camera, GPS tracker, motion detector, and text snooper whenever you have the battery in...
Even at it's most basic form even an old school flip phone is an NSA/FBI/CIA wet dream.
Which is why I hardly ever tote it around with me :)
it really is shocking how much that little phone can do, even the older ones.
i grew up with people who were connected, and they wouldn't even talk in the same room as a plug in rotary dial wall phone.
i can't imagine what they would have thought about how careless people these days are with their personal and private information.
Don you remove the battery between calls?
Not always, but then I don't really use it very much either, so it's left in an outside office most of the time.
