I got the "Dorro" phones for my late Grandad, because they had the "Emergency Button" on them, but even they have started going to "Smart Phones" and adding the likes of Whatsapp etc to them.

Not many kids will want to use them phones though, so cannot see kids using them to get around anything, but if kids start with them, then I can see this clown show of a government looking to ban them.
