I use a dumbphone for calls and a smartphone with no service for free wifi, taking pictures, etc. That’s as cheap as it gets, and as minimal an amount of NSA / PD spying as one can “allow”.
It shows up as a malicious URL and contains a virus although which one was not specified.
I strongly recommend its removal from this thread.

I don't care if she knows where I am and it makes her feel better knowing she can find me. Her phone number is on my 911 gadget I have that I can activate anywhere in my house to automatically call 911. It calls 911 and then calls her.
While all that technology is available now, that is a good thing, however, Hussein's “spys” could find me, too. A pox on Hussein.
What about the black boxes in all cars?
Criminals could do the same thing.
Probably are and have.

99.99 percent of the time, it will show the cell tower closest to my house and am pretty sure it would be the same cell tower the grocery store uses. My range of travel is one street as everything I need is on that street, except for the medical doctor. I don’t know the range of a cell tower or where it is in relation to my house and that one street.
Or industrial disease ?
Perhaps not your travels. Someone who travels out of town or a couple who work a fair distance from home.
Ample time for a B&E and time to get out.
Mine says, “You must make at least one call per month or your service will be discontinued.”
I’m interested in your setup.
What kind of smartphone works best, cheapest, higher end, does it make a difference?
Do you buy a new one, someones discard?
About a year ago, I took a phone just like that into a store to get my software upgraded.
They laughed at me.

I don’t know if I care yet
my verbatim reply to such creatures would earn me an FR timeout

Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
I DID change carriers... but got a smartphone anyway.
here's yer pic, btw :
I don’t “live” on my phone as some folks I know do. I have a Tracphone and use mostly the texting function to stay in touch and it works for emergencies. It will take pics/videos I can send to people ... if I wanted to get on the internet I could, but it eats up my minutes, so I don’t. Since there is no personal info (name/address, etc.) necessary when you buy or use it, someone would have to figure out who you were by other means. Works for me and less than $100/year.
