Most of dumbphone users have gigantic pc at home with tripple monitors where they spend 90% of their free time.

You can imagine how many criminals learned about timing advance only after they got caught with their "untrackable dumbphone".

as long as you are able to make emergency calls your location can and will be tracked

Providers where I live have to keep two weeks or so of logs for cell switching and police uses that data for even minor things.

All cell phones are used to track you.
Aside from this, you've got it spot-on. I recently switched to a dumbphone and it's just so much easier. All you need to do is make calls, send & receive text messages and mayyyybe a camera. Bro fist and thumbs-up, my fellow dumbphone-enjoying sophisticate. :)

Sure, if you're a NEET in Finland then I can believe it. For people with a job the contents of your post simply don't apply.

Smartphone + google voice is my go to. Don't need a SIM/plan, costs me zero dollars. Everywhere has wi-fi, so it doesn't matter that I can't use cell. Just need to keep downloaded maps up to date before I leave the house.
