h/t I Hate The Media
(BIGBROTHERISWATCHING) The US Centers ForDiseasePrivacy Control and Prevention paid for location data harvested from millions of cell phones to track compliance with COVID-19 lockdown measures, according to a new report.
The CDC documents described SafeGraph's data as 'critical for ongoing response efforts, such as hourly monitoring of activity in curfew zones or detailed accounts of visits to participating pharmacies for vaccine monitoring'.
F***ing Retards!
They were literally watching to see who went to get their VAXX Clot Shots and boosters, in real time!
I have a dream that someday, even average nitwits with 80 IQs, maybe even down to 75, will learn to stop carrying their electronic tattletale everywhere they go, plugged in, powered up, and telling Big Brother their moves to within 2m every waking moment of their fool lives.
And I'd also like world peace, gasoline for 50¢/gallon, the winning Powerball ticket, and the cellphone number of the Playmate Of The Year (provided it's still a biological female).
You can guess which wish is likelier to come true this century, but overwhelming odds are the dedicated retards will still be checking their Facecrack status as they're standing in line for the boxcars. Mark my words.
With regards to carrying my charged cell phone with me, I'm of two minds: When I was working on the road or commuting a long distance to my client, I always had my cell phone charged and in my pocket. Noe that I'm reluctantly retired, I drive several miles weekdays to a place where I maintain an office where I write fiction without help from our cats. Since I've had occasional blackouts while driving, I like to have the phone on hand in case I have a medical emergency.
ReplyDeleteOTOH, as you say, I don't like being tracked; this is one reason why I don't have a so-called smart phone(other main reason is that certain DoD clients have a thing about smart phones in restricted areas). These days, I'm no longer getting calls for possible employment, so I've been letting my phone stay with a drained battery, and only charge it before i need to make a call, which isn't very often.
I'm gambling that if something happens while I'm away, someone else will contact my wife. But, I hate to inconvenience other people, and I've called 911 on a few instances of where I've witnessed a car or motorcycle accident on back country roads, and being the first to report the incident.

ReplyDeleteMaybe just maybe, some people carry it only on specific/repeated trips. They might even carry a proven faraday bag just in case they need to go somewhere else while out.
YMMV
If you want some freedom of movement it will take more than just leaving the phone behind. If you haven't established a pattern of leaving it, the Agencies will find it just as damning when you don't carry it.
ReplyDeleteGo to the gym, dog walking, cards with the boys, or just a stroll and a smoke, but build your pattern and carve out some free time NOW.
Consider a modern vehicle to be a phone too, the number of ways they can and do track vehicles, or that your vehicle tattles on you, is just astounding.
I was going to add a whole bunch more to that idea, but once I passed 1000 words, I though there might be better forums for an actual article.
Given the amount of digital spoor modern life leaves behind, it would take a lot of effort and knowledge to move freely, if you care what happens to you later.

And wait until there are more self-driving cars tooling about. Each with an extensive battery of cameras and other sensors pointing in all directions constantly gathering and forwarding data. Location-direction-speed, other cars with their license plates, direction of travel, and speed, pedestrians on the sidewalk with facial recognition, etc. Every move of every person tagged and logged.
