    Gotcha. I guess i do have one, Google Voice, but for various reasons i don't like that for anything important.

    Do you have any suggestions?

    Hmm. When I'm in airplane mode on Wi-Fi i do not get text messages (sms). I might get calls but I'm not sure.

    Interesting. But I do need to get messages and calls and airplane mode kills that.

    I turn my Bluetooth, NFC and Wi-Fi on when i need to use them, otherwise they're off.

    Partly for privacy but also for battery life.

    Do most people leave those on all the time?

  • What browser do yall use?

    Based on their website i don't see how.

    Firefox with ublock (blokada on mobile), do not track, a few settings tweaks, and using ddg or startpage for search seems to be pretty much what librewolf is.

    Not really. Online they'll need my user/pass, 2fa for starters.

    If they try to do it by phone they'll need to first answer a bunch of questions (which yes they can probably get), but then upload a photo of my license....

    Exactly.

    But it's very easy and fast to temporarily thaw it when you want to apply for credit.

    I've been doing it for years.

    I bought a pixel when Google first came out with their cell service. That phone lasted less than a year for no reason I can think of.

    I'm also staying with Samsung, though i had a OnePlus that was great until i dropped it into a river
