> If you have a phone (or other device that connects to mobile networks), your government knows your daily routine anyway.

Because of this reason, quite a lot of people

- don't actually own a mobile phone,

- formally own a mobile phone, but only carry it around if the likelihood is very high that they will need it

- if they need to be available via mobile phone for job reasons (and are thus survived), they prefer to use a feature phone or if it must be a smart phone, they don't install any additional apps or remove the additional surveillance functions from the operating system as far as easily possible
