LOL, I have a Nokia 3585 that is 18 years old.
I like my dumb phone, it doesn’t spy on me.

My favorite was/is the Motorola V60s which I got in 2002. I don’t use it any more but refuse to part with it so it’s separated from its battery, and they’re living together in an old cigar box.

My next favorite is the BlackBerry Classic, which just lost its life due to water damage. (Don’t ask...)

The Classic is no longer sold, so I’m using an LG5 android now and will turn it in before the 14-day trial period is over. In order for it to be fully functional I must be willing to have a relationship with Google — and I’m not willing to be connected to it 24/7. I don’t do gaming, email, or social media so a true smartphone is overkill.

And the android talks to me sporadically, for no particular reason. A woman will announce, “Verizon Wireless”, from my purse or just sitting on a table. Weird.

Since I can’t get a Classic (which is perfect for my needs — including a tactile keyboard), I may have to reunite the parts of the Motorola flip phone.

Any good sluth can monitor you speaker and hear any noice, just like the old POTS phones. It also tracks you if they follow the pings to the cell towers (radio waves). I would not commit a crime carrying any phone or using any vehicle with an GPS unit/Sirus XM radio capable.
