RE: Lock yourself up

Oh yeah, now there's a good example of how phones are used to track etc. I mean, it's not like we're all out there doing criminal things but it's a good indication of what's possible. So much more too...if people knew they'd throw their phones into the sea.

I think, trying our best is the best we can hope for and doing something is better than doing nothing even though that something if probably largely ineffective. There's many out there not taking the time to prepare/protect themselves not just with digital things but in general too...I call them targets or victims.

Edit: I had one of those phones you pictured. Back in the day. Lol.

This Nokia hasn't ever been used. It stayed untouched for probably a couple of decades. I don't have a charger for it anymore and the battery is definitely dead but I'm thinking of buying a new battery and a charger and see if it works...

The battery had a drainage which makes me think it's not working anymore. I would like to turn it on one day and even put a sim card in it.

Operating on a non-smartphone would be impossible mostly I guess, however it's certainly more secure. I hope you get it working...do a post if you do and feel free to tag me.

I'm not planning to make it my daily driver but I'm curious if it's still working and how will it feel having a Nokia working phone again.

I never had a problem with the Nokia's I had, loved them. I had a BlackBerry too, the first of which was so awesome. The second was good to, but not as good as the first. I miss my Nokia 8210 and BlackBerry Curve 8900.

I had a Blackberry Bold for a while but I don't remember the exact model. It was bold indeed.
