defeats the whole point of a phone imo. (for me personally) i only use it for music and communication. if I didn't want communication i would just use a desktop
I believe they meant if you're going to protests
oh yeah in that case absolutely
I just pictured someone doing the whole smash their phone and throw it out the window thing from a spy movie, but theyre just in traffic on their way to work, and it made me chuckle.
Yes, this software was developed explicitly with protests in mind.
