True, keep it at home where no private stuff happens.
You should only do that if you live at the landfill.
I do this. I have a phone, an iPhone SE original, that I use very occasionally but I rarely use it except when some service requires it. But when I go out, it's at home. I've given up on smartphones. I think on a societal level, they make life worse. (On average, of course there may be exceptions.)
i used to think like that but now I think we need regulations to keep these companies honest
