I thought that was basic opsec. Burner phone with a week of use, paid in cash on you. Real phone (if you need it) in a bag, battery removed and separate by any means. That's not just crossing borders, that's anything longer than a city bus.

What phones have removable batteries?

That's funny. I'll just jump in my time machine and go back 11 years.

I just hit my fifties. This life is too short. Or too long. I keep going back and forth on that.

The most brutal correction I believe I have ever witnessed.

Fairphone and shiftphone

All of the Blu phones from TracFone. Which is what I use.

The more important thing to remove is the internal storage. And the answer is: use a laptop

Just wild that you have to practice opsec crossing a border that used to not even ask for your passport lol

Dude, I practice opsec crossing county lines sometimes, what's your excuse? This is how it's always been, you all are just realizing how a dude from Queens and Jersey sees the world. That's all that dumbass is. He's no better than his roots.
