    Good luck, dumb phone means no encryption, SMS and MMS are stored plaintext and freely shared with US three letters and phone convos have been spied on en masse since the 80s.

    That wouldn’t be an issue, if say, the dumb phone existed for emergencies only.

    you’d have to give up phones

    I did mention that as a possibility

    Realistically you’d need to fall back on the postal service, but people can steam open letters

    Well there’s always carrier pigeons and jungle drums.

      Even jungle drums, you’d need your own drum-language. If the rest of the tribe knows it…

      You could book cypher all of your comms, I guess.

        I think you’ve overestimated how much I want to communicate with other people 😅
