Vissif you're going to any of these, today is a shitty hot day.
- sunblock
- a hat
- water
- LEAVE YOUR FUCKING PHONE AT HOME
- or put it in airplane mode and turn off all the radios
- yes they're watching, of course theyre watching.
- they will track you using your bluetooth watch, your phone, your fitness tracker, your earbuds - ANYTHING THAT HAS A RADIO IN IT.
- they literally buy this data from the advertising agencies and claim "this isnt spying"
Chris Kletsch@Viss
as always, refer to #littlebrother¹ for some ideas of what they're tracking and what they're doing with that data ...

¹ and successors, of course
@CKL @pluralistic ive actually made a habit of poking Cory if and when I discover a new scummy trick they use to track you.. and i just was informed of another moments ago:
Steve Atkins@Viss BLE tracking, aka find my iPhone or the Android equivalent, keeps running even when the phone is “turned off”, let alone in flight mode.
If that’s part of your threat model leave the phone, turned on, at home.
Pete@Viss Today, in Knoxville, it was one lonely old dude sitting at an intersection. I honked and so did others. I felt bad that I didn't know about this but proud that an old dude was showing up!
