So go back to asking for directions on every corner or backtracking during the road trip, is that what you're saying? :)

Throwing away progress is not the answer to fighting the corporate greed and device lockdowns.

Add GPS to the second catalog and it's done. The key is not about corporate greed actually, as I'm sure my information is already in dozens of vendors DBs. It's about less distraction.

So the smart phone is going to be as shitty as those corp apps allow.

Did you know that you can swap SIM cards between devices? Or that there are dumbphones on the market that can still serve has 5G hotspots for companion devices?

You are regarded!

Most "dumb phones" are really low end smartphones running kaios (formerly Firefox OS). And yes they usually have wifi hotspot and usb tethering.
