I already do, sort of. RTL-SDR

No better way to drain phone battery. Also doubles as a hand warmer.

You do SDR on your phone? The last time I played with one of those dongles was like a decade ago and mostly I used it to check out NOAA satellite data and eavesdrop on air traffic control at the local airport.

I wonder how useful that would still be to keep tabs on the local pigs during the protests the next time they murder someone?
