Here's the plan:

  1. Normal Cellphone
  2. Kobo
  3. MP3 player
  4. Thinkpad
  5. A Faraday bag

1 will make calls, texts, pay parking fees, let me into concerts and call 911, and nothing else

2 will allow me to continue to read anticapitalist books without being tracked

3 will allow me to continue listening to anticapitalist music without being tracked

4 will allow me to continue discussions about how shit capitalism is with my fellow scorned and continue saying Trump is a pedo and 8647 when I feel like tossing more darts at his mental image, use XMPP, IRC, TOR, Ygg, you know, the gang.

5 will allow me to ditch the fascists when I'm done playing the part of a normal citizen on a daily basis.
