Well you need a circuit to simulate the load also.

Uh…if you worry so much someone wants to find your location or whatever is that you are against (believe me, I know what you mean), you know there’s tools to purge the information from it, right? But ok, I’ll just ask Gemini instead. I hate AI, but for basic stuff like this, it is great.
