"You'd need our keys to enter your house."

I guess this is the thing, they're not our houses. I'm increasingly of the perspective that phones are just a tax, an entry requirement for a hostile society.

Spent a week with it uncharged in my drawer recently, that was great, should try that again.

It is really wired when I learned a few years ago the landlord has a spare key to my rented flat and could go in whenever he wants. And this sounds like it.
