I carry one for work. I’m sure FedGov has the number, since I’m an outspoken gun owner.

Just think they could use this data to determine how many miles you drive a year for tax purposes. Since they are pushing electric, they will need a replacement for the gas tax.

So true. I think I'm the only remaining human without one. I mean, I've had the same phone number for 30 years.

If you can't reach me ... you ain't supposed to. I'm positively GA GA about my privacy!!

On android (can’t say for iphones), you generally need to accept certain conditions to be able to utilize an app. The app’s usage of tracking data is likely included in the agreement and by using the app, you have agreed to that usage.

All they’ll discover about my cell phone is that it sits in a desk drawer at least 99% of the time. And I’ve never put any app on the thing, either.

Of course, this will probably be considered evidence that I’m concealing some sort of nefarious white-supremacist activities.

So what. That doesn’t change the fact that the government does not have a warrant.

Go to a Walmart. Put your cellphone in one of their small cheap microwave ovens. Have a friend call your phone number. If the phone in the microwave rings, go on to the next small microwave and try again.

When you find a microwaves that stops your phone from ringing - buy it and leave it in your car to ‘carry’ your phone. As long as you don’t take the phone out of the microwave you can’t be tracked (well, unless you have a ‘smart car’ )

If you CCW it’s unwise to not also carry a phone because your life will get a lot more complicated if you’re involved in a shooting and someone other than you is the first to be identified as the victim. Crims rarely report themselves to police so being the first to report the shooting is a good first step to establishing your victimhood, which is a good first step to preserving your liberty.

The catch is that simply turning off a phone might not completely unpower it. Many phones still pull a little current even when they’re switched off. And since G**gle is Da Debil, it stands to reason that Android phones in particular are wired to betray your anonymity every chance they get.

Removing the battery is a better idea but over time phones with replaceable batteries have got scarcer and scarcer. If your battery isn’t removable you can substitute aluminum foil for a commercial “Faraday cage” bag, provided you use enough foil.

I found that my phone would still ring when I dialed its number when wrapped in a single layer of HD Reynolds Wrap, but not when I added a second layer. So just for good measure I added a third layer, then put the foil bag inside the phone holster and even with three layers of aluminum foil the phone would still fit easily.

If you still can take calls with your D-I-Y Faraday cage, the bag isn’t any good, and if you can’t take calls there’s no reason to put the phone in it and leave it switched on. And switching it off might not completely unpower it but whatever circuits might remain energized have to be very low powered, which means very short range. Shorter still if they’re behind three layers of Reynolds Wrap.

If the GOP captures the House of Representatives, and are serious about restoring liberty, they need to go through the budget line by line and strike the funding of activities such as this as well as the billions being funneled to social activist groups aligned with the Democrat party. All appropriations must be approved by the House of Representatives. A Speaker McCarthy and GOP House majority can make a huge difference if they use the power of the purse when producing spending bills. The question is, do they have the desire and backbone to eliminate the wasteful spending and funding of oppression?

Partner, great read.

If the DemonRats are cast out of D.C. then we should have the backbone to get all the wasteful spending out.

Enough is enough of this wasteful spending.

Pelousy is a joke as the House of Reprensentatives Joker in charge.

McCarthy should include sunset dates to really mean something.
