I would’ve put my phone on power saving mode if I was stranded. It’s good for 2 or 3 days. That’s without a battery bank or solar panel I would’ve had in my pack.
Comment on text don't call

I get the logic. If it’s some random ass number and you’re stranded with no charger, why waste time on what might be a spam call? That and I don’t want one of the last things I hear to be someone talking about car insurance

Because you can probably recognise a spam call in less than 20 seconds

The second time the same number calls back, it becomes a different story.

You haven’t met scammers local to me

Weird. Yeah since like 2009 I have almost never seen a spam call come from the same number twice. I’m in the US.

Not pictured the 4 other calls at the same exact time.

Same. It makes blocking the numbers pointless.

Ah, Canadian here

I never get these calls. My secret? I never give my phone number out to anyone except hospitals and other health related professions.
When I gave out my number I got them all the time.

There are local prefixes I will never answer no matter what. I’m looking at you, 243 and 422.
