Within the law.
Physics law?
We have already followed blindly(that is what you advise us to do) one law. You cannot fly when there is a volcanic ash in the air. Look where it got us. You cannot imagine the level of disruption it caused to Europe and how many people suffered, just because we blindly followed a law created who knows how many years ago when people understood much less of the nature of the volcanic ash and if it not enough, then the law imposed by people who generally have no clue about science.
We were just courteous and meekly complied.

The same applies to switching off mobile phones or even worse, ebook readers that essentially stay on anyway, even though you press power button.
As Lo Zeno said:

What they knew back then, was that radio signals were a largely unexplored fields. Now it isn't, and the increased knowledge has shown that many things we believed were partially exaggerated
Courtesy doesn't always work for our benefit.
