I’m aware that carrying a phone means that I can be tracked with cell towers and that’s fine.
But is there some sort of tracking that can be done on modern dumb-phones that make relevant ads show up(on spotify/youtube) that are based on where the phone has been?
Thanks I’m a newb

I’ve read in the past that Google makes the OS for some flip phones, so yes. You could get a Punkt dumb phone that shouldn’t spy on you
From Punkt FAQ: Verizon: not supported/not supported
Sadly, that keeps a ton of people from using the phone. In many rural areas, VZW is the only coverage that they can get.
