For a long time now I’ve been fairly comfortable simply stating
I plain don’t like smartphones
I’ve gone into this in more detail elsewhere – but the short version is:
- They’re very poor mobile computing devices
- They’re very poor telephones
- They’re designed to actively work against (and spy upon) the user
However, I need a telephone of some sort. And while I try my utmost to eliminate it, there is some software which (grudgingly) I’m compelled to run outside of a PC.
