I know it's an odd question, but where I live phones get stolen often. My phone doesn't have the option for an eSim, which is a problem because 90% of the time when a thief steals a phone they take out the SIM card immediately, meaning I wouldn't be able to remotely lock or wipe my phone.

Should I consider glueing the SIM tray shut? Or are there alternative less permanent measures I can take to keep my device secure?

Ahh imagine carrying on one side for too long, the back pain....

Maybe I could also look into hiring someone to carry the setup for me, that way I can have even more peace of mind knowing I'm protecting my health and my data! /s
