Google and Facebook cross the creepy line; and then sell YOU, and your data, to advertisers!

I don't know of any other choices. I have been looking for a Linex based phone, but no joy yet.

In the interim I have disabled all automatic functions, including location and automatic updates. Every few weeks, I un-install every application I can find, and return it to factory original programming.

I can't stop them, but I will slow them down by destroying their sneaky uploads, repeatedly. It makes them have to keep patching their data base together too.

Apple is actually more of a danger because they are recording much more private information. I considered changing to Apple, until I found that out! Now there is NO WAY now!

that is very bad, thanks for educating me also.
I hope we can soon have a way out of it though

Yes, until then I will keep uninstalling all the updates, since it messes with them, ROFLOL!

It is really nice to see You Here on Steemit, I know how low you are on RC! So make the replies short as possible, and they will go further! Trashed again on buying SBDs, but I just bought a book on how to do it....

So do NOT give up yet, okay? If I get into buying crypto, things will improve for Both of us!

I was on 1.17 % on RC when I tried replying but couldn't.
this uninstalling apps frequently thing might work on me too.

That will be wonderful, looking forward to that

WOW is crypto complicated! Way past sane, and obviously not planned. When things just happen, they get really difficult; and this mess obviously just happened! What a mess, but I will go after it this evening, and kill it!

We will both get clear of the RC Jail problem. I have 181 delegated SBDs about to expire myself, and I do NOT want to go back into that jungle! I will grab enough to keep us both running clear!

So don't give up on steem yet!

I am not going to give up it this easily, I will fight till the last minute with you :D But this staying in the below 20% disappoints, when you want to write but you can not

Sorry I got an account running with coinbase, and I thought I was home, THEN they wanted my Drivers License! I will Never put that online to help them steal my identity!

So I will try again....

:)>

wow, never give your information to anyone and never click on "allow" online

Agreed, I never publish my information, and I allow NOTHING! :)

I even have my cell phone selected to manual approval before any upgrade is allowed.

It pays to be difficult!
