Well that’s kinda the point.
I’d think that it would not really be a concern… Google tracks your location via its apps. As do others.
But I’d be more concerned in town rather than when you’re outin the wilderness
Fair..
Batteries are removable! Maybe I don't have anything to worry about then. I can keep the batteries out until I need it.
Maybe at the time you most need it, you'd want it to be as readily as possible. May I suggest a thin plastic layer to open the circuit rather than having the batteries out?
