<p>But the not/working list is still a little rough:<br>

<div>> Do you turn off your cell (screen/flip) phone when you
walk around? :)<br>
</div>

<div>Yes. I keep it in airplane mode almost all of the time. No
cell radio, bluetooth or GPS, but I do use wifi. If I want to do
a web search or check my email, and I'm out of wifi range, I
will briefly turn on the cell radio. These things are long
established habits, so they don't seem like a burden or require
a lot of thought. Airplane mode also saves me from spam phone
calls and those national security alert things where the phone
makes a loud noise design to provoke maximum anxiety until you
acknowledge that a child has gone missing in Thunder Bay or that
you should consider washing your hands. I'm done with that.<br>

<div>There's more I could be doing. I could install a more secure
and private Android distro (one that is fully degooglized).
That's on my TODO list. I could power off my phone and store it
in the fridge (faraday cage) when I'm not using it, as
recommended by Edward Snowden, but I'm too lazy and/or
internet-addicted to do that.<br>
