When was the last time you used a payphone?
Did you ever use a payphone in a payphone booth?

even if they still had it, its easier to just ask someone to borrow his phone which millions today have unlimited text & talk plans so it doesnt use up their minutes to lend it out

So that’s what you’re really getting at here…

I haven’t used a payphone in about three years. Prior to that, courts in CT did not permit phones with cameras in the building. I would have to check my cellphone with the judicial Marshal before clearing security and if I had to make a call while in the building I used the payphone. They had booths to provide privacy.
When it became almost impossible to get new cellphones without cameras the rules changed.
