KISS (none / 0) (#5)

My solution is Keep It Simple, Stupid (KISS). I have an old cell phone that doesn't take text messaging and doesn't get any unwanted calls. Even though I earned a good living in high-tech all my life, I can tell you that you don't need any of this stuff like SMS, and neither does anybody else, if they really thought about it. Everything else is I have is the minimum level of technology I need, never any bells or whistles. The sleazoids who run high-tech companies would be fired if everybody did what I do, and we'd revert to more reliable and more ethical technology.
