1 Give an analogy, the moment your phone becomes active, there is a permanent red line being drawn wherever that phone goes. (from your house, to outdoors, to your work, etc), and the cops can see that red line.

2 If you want to have an anonymous phone number on you, you'd have to keep it shut down (and in a faraday bag) at all times, EXCEPT at those times where you are in public (not at your house), while remaining unindentifiable. link it to the tutorial on outdoors anonymity (anonymity while protesting) >> TLDR it is much simpler to not bring your phone while trying to remain anonymous outside

3 clarify at the end, that what matters is what you give out to services (clientside context you are giving a username, an email, personal information and at worst your actual phone number)
