Agreed. But back then there were such things as phone booths. If your car got stuck or you otherwise we're out of the house and had to make a call you may have been within walking distance of one.
Landlines used to be analog, which would always work even if the power was out due to minimal power need, now they have switched us all over to digital several years ago. So if the system goes landlines go as well.
I am a testament of what you just stated. I have been without a cell phone for over 3-years. There isn't really any occasion in that time that couldn't wait until I go home to take care of something. I feel so much more free being without it. My stress level has gone way down. Yes, you can say that cell phones are a stressor. No one bothers me when I am out. No one knows where I am when I am traveling. And this is actually liberating. No spam. And I noticed my life has slowed down as a result. When I am out in town, I am no longer reminded of all the lies and doom and gloom that's reported. A slave is a kept individual. A free man is able to travel unbeknownst to anyone but himself. I like melting anonymously into every place I go.
Definitely agree leaving the phone home or using a faraday bag is smart. But I can't help thinking we might have the wrong attitude about all this. Sure it's prudent to try and avoid being tracked even if it's just a VPN, Problem is, shouldn't we have the general attitude towards these particular "authorities" that says, "yeah I visited that site, or yeah I was at that location, You got a fucking problem with that?" Being gloriously unapologetic and defiant. Give them the disrespect they deserve. Obviously, one or a few people would be inviting trouble. But if everyone were to think that way... hmm... yeah. Anyway, just a thought.

Thanks for voicing my immediate reaction to this thread also. What's with all the cooperation, restricting our own freedom, cutting off our own communication?
The problem with this is they can and have demonstrated their willingness to falsify evidence, and upcharge you in court, to throw you into prison for not being a loyal, servile democrat.
Eventually they will move to terminating the lives of "domestic terrorists"
We have to be considerably smarter in resisting them. Going around being generally unruly or "trespassing" (they can apparently make this mean anything they want) isn't going to help things when you have all our assets siezed, put on a terrorist list, and tossed in gulag.
This isn't the American way anymore. We are dealing with a regime with the mentality of the CCP, and very literally taking orders from the CCP because the White House is now run by Chicom agents puppeting the walking corpse.
Truthfully, they fear us. Which is odd because we've been so nice to them their entire lives. We don't raid their offices, harass them in the streets, or any of the nasty stuff they do to us.
But I guess that's the point, they know they deserve to be treated poorly, but they're so caught up in themselves they can't help but have that perpetual panic over it. This is why they're so sensitive. They know pain is coming. They just don't know when.
They'd have been better off to leave their cellphones at home, but apparently that's beyond the wherewithal of some people.
If people need to leave their phones at home so they can show PUBLIC SUPPORT, things are a lot worse than they seem.
But in the end, God wins.
I pray for everyones safety and freedom!
Agreed. But back then there were such things as phone booths. If your car got stuck or you otherwise we're out of the house and had to make a call you may have been within walking distance of one.
I still remember the excitement of being able to use a pencil and paper to write someone a note instead of using a hammer and chisel and a flat rock!
When I was growing up, the only people who had pagers dealt drugs lol
That's my thinking too. I still use a landline, so never got addicted to the phone thing.
I have a VCR.
I have a small puppet show theatre. That's "movie night" for us.
I still have a floppy drive. Just never got around to transferring to a USB. Really need to do that...

ignorance truly can be a bliss and anonimity is its own reward

Fuck that. Grow a spine.
yep...fuggem
Agreed. Grow that spine and stand up for others in the moment.
An attack on one is an attack on all. No more debate with these liars.
Help a pede when he gets attacked. Help a pede rebuild when we can't prevent the damage. That simple.
You make a good point, but I wonder if now the J6-ers wish they'd left their phones at home.
But then we wouldn't have most of the video footage that show what really happened.
Not if we bought cheap $200 phones and spent the $1000 we "saved" on digital cameras.
Just tell them you were fishing off the pier. Only thing you caught was some fags breaking into the True President's home.

the raid was more about exposing "them" than Trump..."it had to be this way"

And in doing so they will sadly discover the consequences of being a dissident in a CCP controlled nation.
The CCP, and thus the Biden admin, has a -50 tolerance for even the smallest acts of defiance to their will.
People need to realize this isn't the old America anymore. The danger is very real, and you don't have rights anymore.
By all means resist, but you have to do so expecting they will try to punish you for it.
