They wouldn't even need to go that far. As long as the phone is talking to the tower its position is known. Perhaps a rise in mesh networks with non cellular devices will be a thing?
- kortilla 7y agoNot a very good position though (can be hundreds of feet off), so it depends on what you want to do with that data.
- Retric 7y agoFor a single data point it’s not that accurate but over time things change. How many people are within 500 feet of you for 4+ hours a day. In that mindset, building a model to track say every person on a tour bus seems rather straightforward. Even locating people likely to be having an affair seems doable if you have some basic biographic info on the general population.
