I guess I’m a trend-setter, then. Never had a “smart” phone. Never wanted one. I can keep track of my movements myself,, thank you very much.

I don’t know if this still holds true but the shipyards used to have a block on smartphones allowed within certain areas of the shipyard and so workers used dumb phones (without cams).

Old dumb phones still can be tracked, I believe. Ours from 2000 had “location” built in.
