- pajko 2y agoAs the article says, having no phone at all or having a factory-reset burner phone might be worse.
- subscribed 2y agoTo be honest I'd just shrug, admit I didn't want to go through the hassle of wiping my normal phone, so decided to use a temporary one. Just flatly admit I intended to comply with the request, just didn't want to be afraid if I deleted all the saucy photos of myself with my wife. But in all seriousness I have a phone like this already and use it as a navigation device only: just gmaps, Waze, citymapper and separate Google account (in my name). Just devoid from anything personal while visibly being in use for a lot of time.
