I just realised the only 2fa my phone does any more is steam guard.

The thing is in ok condition. I'm gonna ditch it. And my other one with a swelling battery, drop it at a charity shop.

Literally just need to reorg my paper password backups.

I am done with this phone shit.

We know that they are listening in on them. Just yesterday we briefly talked about the price of gold, and my friend said that later, on YouTube, all these ads trying to sell him gold.

Just the latest in an unending stream of ads appearing that only related to things not being put into the phone or search engine.

Gonna get rid of this crap on Monday.

Ah yeah, actually, maybe to trade in for a second hand ebook reader. I almost forgot I'd started reading regularly again. The phone is so heavy for this task. My fingertips are already overworked from typing. Holding the phone for hours is not ergonomic.

Ridding oneself of as many pocket surveillance devices as possible is a move you won't regret.

yeah, currently I have to deal with needing a phone app installed to use my xapo and revolut bank services. So the bloated old Defy will stay, wrapped in foil, in a steel box, wrapped in some cloth to further dampen its sound absorption, and the mic taped shut, cameras taped.

Still may need to deal with this shit some further but yeah, I want this out of my life, and the radio frequencies out of my space.
