Do you live in the Bora Bora caves!? Seriously, in many highly developed countries, you need a mobile phone for essential government services.
- lrvick 1y agoHardly. I run a b2b tech company in silicon valley, frequently travel the world, and have a fairly active social life. No essential services ever -require- a phone. Just say it is against your unspecified religion and watch them fall over backwards to create alternatives for you. It is always hilarious to watch someone at a theme park or restaurant produce a paper map or menu just after saying they no longer exist moments earlier. If I travel overnight my only tech is a tiny laptop to work on the go, but when it is closed it is off, and not able to notify me.
