Not using it even with a gun pointed at my head.

Having government apps on my phone physically makes me ill, it feels like I have worms in my butt. I can't describe it with other words. I hate my government with passion.

Probably gonna have to buy a burner phone though, and do what you said. Seems like there is no escaping it...
