That's a 'minimise usage' but I might change my mind if, for instance, being prepared to use them despite the risks made you particularly attractive in the job marketplace. Or would work use be banned because of it? Would we see a renaissance for phone boxes? Follow-me numbers?
You'd be allowed to use them outside work, but not in the office (and a bloody good thing too IMHO).
Meanwhile, unethical businesses would hire mobile operators to do their high-speed on-the-go communications for them as they scrabbled for a competitive advantage by any means necessary; rumours would abound about the resulting effects on the sanity and potency of these so-called "telemusketeers", but they'd still command a certain kind of grudging respect as hard-bitten mercenaries, phones-for-hire living on the edge of the law.
