Well the Internet is already on it’s way to being controlled outside the US as we know.....
I do not have nor have desired a cell phone...though I will have a pre-paid one for emergencies in the near future. Phone went down for almost two days during snow storm. So need one for such times.
I do go to twitter especially during national disasters etc. or significant events. But I never tweet...nor do i go to facebook unless referenced something of importance.
I have a Trac phone for back up — they had a 3G, reasonably-good-sized screen on sale at Walmart - I picked up 2 (1 for spare) at a price even cheaper than my original Trac Phone with was like $9.87. I think I got these for $9.82 each — it’s pretty good for a cheap phone - and you can pull webpages and gesture (resize) the screen.
$20 for a 3-month card (it’s a 3x phone original was a 2x phone) - so you get 3x mins - $20 card is 60 mins so 180 - $25 card (only at the FRONT of Walmart) has 90 mins so 270 - better deal than the $30 card in the electronics section.
This card ($25) is ONLY at the front of WM on a rack with restaurant cards, etc. Sometimes a big four-sided display; sometimes just a rack with 20 other cards.
PLUS find bonus codes online for extra free mins - if you get a Tracphone - I’ll give ya the link (or anyone else) who wants to get free minutes.
Cheap Trac phone with 3G that was less than $10 - >>>>LG Sunrise<<<< - they were only $19.99 anyways - may still be on Ebay - haven’t checked WM lately.
GET a rubber cover to protect it if you drop it — it has saved both of my phones at least twice each. As careful as I am, it has still happened. The rubber covers with snap-off belt holster - like $6 in multiple colors on eBay.
I went with black for both. Got a red one at first for one to make it easier to tell which was which - looked too darn close to pink lol - it’s medium red but came off as light red against the black holster. It’s laying around somewhere - haven’t seen it in awhile.
