Can law enforcement track a phone even if it’s turned off or doesn’t have a SIM card? Just curious how this works.
That’s a complex topic involving various technical and legal considerations. From a phone protection standpoint, the most important thing is to focus on what you can control to secure your personal data.
Here are general steps to protect your phone’s security and privacy:
- Use a Strong PIN/Password: Always secure your lock screen.
- Enable Biometrics: Fingerprint or Face ID for convenience and security.
- Keep OS Updated: Install software updates immediately for security patches.
- Review App Permissions: Limit what apps can access (location, mic, camera).
- Use 2-Factor Authentication: For all online accounts.
- Back Up Your Data: Regularly save your important information.
