How many of you DO NOT USE CELL PHONES?
Just wondering if there was anyone left besides me.

I use a cell phone, but it's not a smart phone.

I rarely have a minute to myself as it is, so I don’t have one either.

So who is monitoring this flow of information and where in the h*ll are the memory banks? They must be the size of small towns.
To: Zuben Elgenubi
Probably the same people who are looting the treasury.

DO NOT USE CELL PHONES? ...Try to limit them to emergencies only. I will be hung by the IFG or by some FReepers for my replies on FR Threads.

Things like this make me consider going back :\
Then again, I doubt landline phones are any better.

I got rid of mine. Service is way too expensive. Between that and the satellite tv service I got rid of, I probably save at least $150 a month. Besides, my company gave me a cell phone, but I don’t use it. It usually sits uncharged in my backpack.
To: ShadowAce
So what exactly does this mean?

Where are the "memory banks"?They are everywhere. Look for intersections of power and transportation networks (optical fiber is installed on both power lines and RR rights of way). The data centers need huge amounts of power. They are the nondescript but huge buildings with no windows or signs on them and high security surrounding them. They are everywhere.
To: Zuben Elgenubi
You don’t have to save all of it, depending on the value of the information. Where I’ve been and my passwords aren’t of much value...but for specific other people, the value could be very high. The point is that they’re getting this information without any permission or knowledge of the user, and that is an invitation to “be evil”.
