Garmin is mainly based on quality, with the benefit of privacy. I know many family friends who hike, run, bike, etc and use garmin because it is reliable.

Hope this privacy stuff becomes more common, kind of hate having to modify software or installing custom OSs for my day-to-day stuff.

Not many people care about privacy anymore. I mention it to my family, friends, etc and how they should do certain things online to stay more ‘private’ (not anonymous) and they laugh it off saying they have nothing to hide / don’t care about their stuff being online… Sucks.
