I just met a guy whose miner scans cars driving by and sells the data for #Ethereum.

Is there a time when we start being good to each other?

#Crypto #RFID

@meph Right? So gross.

@Gustodon @meph

fairly certain this would break a few laws over here, but it would be hard to detect/enforce

I'm not sure how valuable the data would be as TMPS sensors only send a string of digits and maybe there would be a wifi SSID giving the name of the car and an index number, but those aren't much use on their own without a *big* database of all the cars and the various data formats they use, I guess /someone/ is paying for that in USA (maybe hoping to sell it to ICE and any other stalkers who might want it?)

@vfrmedia I'm sure you're right but I don't have any details. I was just surprised to encounter a new category of mercenary thinking.
