If you would indulge me and those friends of ours who value privacy and object to ubiquitous surveillance and data harvesting,
PLEASE LEAVE YOUR PHONE*, SMARTIPANTS-WATCH, i-TOILET PUCK (sic!), etc. AT HOME OR IN YOUR CAR.
( If you have a creeping 1984-ish feeling that all this shit may not be in your and our society’s best interest but feel overwhelmed and unsure how to opt out of any of it, you may want to start with a simple, cheap microphone blocker and, perhaps, residue-free camera lens blocking stickers on your phone and on your computer; both available at: https://mic-lock.com/collections/all )
* unless it is an Above Phone or similar privacy phone
Avoid Apple
Abandon Amazon
Forget Facebook
…and whatever you do, GET. OFF. GOOGLE.
