To kill switch or not to kill switch? That is the question! by Derek D. Rosario

To kill switch or not to kill switch- that is the question! 

Kill switch feature for smartphones are being fiercely opposed by major U.S. wireless carriers! Why? 

Would you like a kill switch feature on your phone in case it gets stolen? That means if your beloved phone gets stolen, you can disable your device and render the phone completely useless, oh the sweet revenge, right?  Might as well put a Fisher Price label on it! Ha!

But wait, hold up? Now they might kill the kill switch feature??? Who's "they"? "They" would be the major U.S. wireless carriers who wouldn't be able to profit off of having such a feature on smartphones!

Ok, so now you're probably wondering:

"Well, why would they NOT want this feature if it will protect the person's smartphone from getting stolen, or at least diminishing the chance it could get stolen?"

Apparently some have allegedly said that "the feature could be exploited by hackers" & also that it "can't be undone". But is this true? Hmmm. Others, however, say that this is motivated by sheer profit! How? Well, wouldn't they lose out on money for Insurance plans? Or how about reactivation of resold phones and sales of replacement phones? Of course it probably wouldn't stop the carriers from using it themselves once your contract expires! Besides, if you wanted to sell your phone to ANYONE it should be to www.sell.rebootcharity.org so proceeds can go to charity and not to fund anymore corporate pockets!

Apple phones v.s. Android phones

While Android phones want none of that, Apple, however, is able to add the feature without carrier approval since they control all their devices and hardware to the operating systems! After all, they DID just include a kill switch option called "Activation Lock" to their iPhones and iPads with the release of iOS7. Thank goodness since half of the staff here at Reboot Charity have Apple iPhones!

Sell your older, outdated phones to Reboot Charity, get top dollar!

What do YOU think?

So what's your take on it? Do you think the phone carriers should "kill the kill switch"? Would you feel safer knowing if your smartphone ever got stolen (*shudder) that you could just use the kill switch feature and make sure all of your data is protected? I'm going to have to go on yes to that one, personally.

The iPhone 5 – Don’t Sell it, Trade it or Throw it. Donate it!!!

www.rebootcharity.org

In the United States, millions of old cell phones are thrown away every year in the United States, with only an estimated 10% being recycled. When a cell phone, such as an iPhone 5, becomes outdated, people instinctively throw it away or try to sell it for minimal cash and proceed with buying a new one. Rather than throwing away your iPhone 5, why not donate it to a better cause?

Donate your iPhone 5 to Reboot Charity!

Don’t sell it back

When a cell phone becomes outdated, it is usually sold for a small amount of cash. In truth, with the affordability of cell phones today, trading in doesn’t really seem like a wise choice. Rather than getting cash for iPhone, why not donate it to a better cause? The few extra bucks you receive from selling your iPhone 5 cannot compete with the benefit people will receive from your donation, plus you will receive a tax-write off come tax season.

Don’t trade it in

Many people choose to trade in their iPhone 5 to receive a cash discount for a new iPhone. However, yet again, your discount will seem rather minimal compared to the benefits people will receive from your donation.

Don’t throw it away

Truth be told, while many try to sell their cell phones, many others simply throw them away. Whether it is due to a faulty part or just an obsolete phone, people throw their cell phones away every day, giving you no value in return. Electronic donations are a great alternative – you still throw away your cell phone but rather than in the bin, you throw it to a better cause.

Rather than simply throwing your iPhone 5 away, receiving minimal cash for it or trading it in for a small discount, we recommend you donate it to charity. Trading, selling and throwing it away pales in comparison to the benefits people will receive from your donation.

Donate it to www.Rebootcharity.org !!!

Trading in Your iPhone the Charitable Way

Trade in your older phones at www.sell.rebootcharity.org

Apple iPhones are all the craze these days. From young adults to office-going folks to senior citizens, everybody’s just got to have one. Reminds me of the way laptops were introduced for the very first time; just about everybody I knew wanted to have one.

With companies like Apple, where innovation and creativity are at the pinnacle, it is quite common for phones to start losing their edge after just a year or so. New and improved models keep arriving on the shelf, offering far better features at around the same price.

So, what do you do with your old phone?

Do you give it away to a friend or family member?
