Russia might be poor, especially now, but most young people have seen using two or more phones. Burner bumdphone is not a difficult concept. Someone needs to drop a stock of old lineageos/android phones in there.

Won't they pat you down for phones though? I mean burner phones are kind of an obvious thing these days.

Well I meant it as a secondary easy device at home (not like a laptop). Something you can leave before going outside.

It’s healthier to just use a laptop.

still less easy to throw out, and less separation from legal life and 'anti putin talks'
