    Not a bad strategy at all.

    Still, hate to negotiate with terrorists. And bring home potato photos. Instead of $developing-nation-per-capita-GDP phone quality photos.

    Which of course means the thieves will still be tempted! If anti-pickpocketing strategy becomes too successful, they’ll move to violent means, then a cheap phone will be a must.

      Well phones are generally pretty good for taking pictures and videos. A pixel 4 or something is a pretty decent phone for example.
