More fascist control freakery?
I have a mobile but very rarely use it. Hopefully totally dead when
switched off. But is it?

Pull the battery (if possible) and it will be.

There are also 'Faraday Cage' bags available... more intended for the
law enforcement industry, but used by tinfoil hat people too.

Here's one, there are others...

An anti psychotic may help you from being paranoid about it. Do you
really think out of all the cell phones in the world that you are so
special that they are spying on you? It's all marketing, they want to
see how most people use their phones so they know what features to keep
or make easier on the next new model. Do you want your favorite
features dropped? No cell phone company has the time nor resources to
look at each individual account statistics, they just want to see the
big picture.

Unless you fat-finger Jihad for Jim had.
Then you might be under a microscope.

If you don't do anything wrong or go to anywhere dodgy, you'll probably be
okay. The authorities, however, can fake the records, so you're pretty much
screwed anyway.

"...Rooting is gaining "root" permissions over the system. it's like
"administrator" in Windows: you can change almost all the settings."

"...This allows you to change all kinds of things that normally you
wouldn't be able to, along with install custom versions of Android."

Good Luck!

I'm only mildly concerned about the Fuzz possibly tracking me some day
(though I'm not sure you've thought through all the implications...I'm
sure you don't go over the speed limit with your phone turned on).

But as recent events have shown, cell phones are now smart enough to
be hacked by less than noble types. An app like this greatly increases
the amount of data they can get with a brief incursion and logging key
strokes circumvents almost every remaining level of security you might
think you have.

Give people convenience and they are oblivious that they're being led to
slaughter. People will soon demand chip implants so they can avoid
TSA groping when they travel. They want convenience and I'm sure a
deadly poison or explosive activated by remote control will be secreted
into every chip meant for lowly citizens who will be blissfully unaware
of what they have voluntarily allowed nefarious government agents to
inset into their bodies. ^_^
