The people who say you become more conservative usually mean that you will become more well off. And indeed when they earn their financial freedom, they want to protect the status quo.

We know people in Palestine have still have access to phones and Internet. I'm sure if Israel wanted, they could sneak new phones in the region. They literally control the whole of Palestine.
