Exactly...someone is usually watching somewhere regardless of where you
are. I used to laugh in the 80's & early 90's when I was flying over Cuba on a regular basis. Havana would always tell me that radar service was terminated and then require verbal position reports while we all knew they were tracking us closely on their radar. Now that things are "friendlier" with them, we are always in radar contact....amazing.... "Radar service terminated" doesn't mean someone...somewhere...isn't watching.

While you may be out of range of ATC radar, "Big Brother" may be watching with even bigger radars (e.g., Shemya)...
