  • Israelis don't like being traced and snooped on by their government either. "Airplane Mode" seems to have stopped their version of the COVID tracing app from functioning, but there are even better ways to keep the nanny state dick out of your ass when you have to be on the move...

    Yes, commercially made Faraday bags are already available, but for those who are DIY minded and want to make their own...

    MATERIALS NEEDED:

    1. Your phone (obviously)

    2. Emergency space blanket, aluminum foil, or any other type of metallic reflective and insulating foil.

    3. Mini cigar box or similar container that fits your phone the best.

    Carefully line the inside of the box with the foil, preferably a double layer, paying close attention to the seams where the case opens and closes.

    Place your phone inside and call it with another phone. Going straight to voicemail? The phone inside the case has no 'missed calls' recorded? Congratulations, you have made your own Faraday case...
