I'm sorry, but I don't see how getting a pager and keeping the phone
off, other than making your life more difficult, really has that much
benefit. The pager still has to be locatable in order for you to get the
page, right? So it can still be used to track you?

Or is the point that no one can remotely turn on audio/video/etc? I have
a mobile phone but keep the GPS, wifi, Bluetooth, and location services
turned off unless I absolutely need to use them.
