When we're out in public? Yes.

If its time sensitive? Yes.

Like I said, its something that's annoying, but this is the cost of keeping my privacy. My wife uses Apple for all her stuff and she understands. By any account I wouldn't say this is a "burden" per se. She opens the app, hits a few buttons and hits sends. Hardly something that I would consider a burden.

I mean, that is the nature of marriage. You both shoulder burdens for each other

> I’m protecting by myself

From… what?

In the case of this thread, the OP is protecting themselves from Google tracking by using a de-Googled phone. But they do not seem to care that Google is tracking their spouse.

All of her devices are Apple. She's made the decision she's ok with the tracking, which is her decision alone. I'm not going to force her to give up her entire system just to make me happy.

That's not how marriage works.

Rather, I imagine it would be a bit hard to get them into doing that, given the difficulties it can imply.
