When I tell people I have no cell phone of ANY kind, they look at me like I have a third eye.............

I use my smart phone to make phone calls, text friends, get notices of upcoming appointments, etc. I use it to check commute times and traffic and reroute when necessary. MY wife and I use Life360 to keep track of each other’s location. It’s why, after a 90 minute commute, my wife puts dinner on the table seconds before I get into the house.

I do all my bill paying through my heavily secured desktop computer though. Nothing that really MUST stay secure is done through my cell phone.

Well, have you checked to see if they were correct?

So why doesn't your Freeper profile list you as being from Venus?

Me too! I do not have a cell phone and never sent a text or took a selfie in my life. Life goes on and I'm doing okay.

None of this convinces me I should get any sort of cell phone.

I have been in high tech for a long time - Microsoft, Apple, US Gov, Cyber Crime organizations protecting major financial companies around the globe.

If you give people control of admin access and something they can take power over other people with out you knowing about they will abuse it massively. People are very sneaky and will stab you in the back if they get power and or money.

There is more going on with your super computers in your pocket, purses and night stands than you realize.

If you don't ever NEED prompt communication and never expect to be in any emergency situation, you don't need one. Until you do.
