"The only mitigation is a lifestyle change to switch from always-reachable to scheduled availability windows or the always-async workflows of pre-mobile computing."
I always had a call recorder installed on my mobile, it saved my bacon a few times when dealing with scammy companies and various wankers.
Then a wakeup call arrives for me - my phone updates to the new version of android, on which google blocked call recording.
I installed a landline, and stopped spending money on fancy phones. I can't eacape them, but they will never see me spend more than a bare minimum.
Recording videos in public is also often illegal in many places, yet all smartphones come with 2-7(?) cameras. The web browser lets you download pirated content from shady sources. You can post illegal text-based content (defamation etc.) in various apps. You could probably even cause some noise complaints with the alarm app.
