Honestly if you care about privacy, leave your cellphone at home. It will do wonders for your mental health also not having a dopamine generator in your pocket.

I just want to point out that it sounds like the privacy switch doesn’t disable the cellular radio. Which I guess makes sense in a way because if you are disabling all signals from your mobile device, what’s the point of even carrying it? Might as well leave your phone at home.

1. Solitaire when I'm bored

2. Being able to switch it back on if I need to access a network for some reason.

(not that you're wrong about leaving it at home being a good option)
