Still wrong, here's a DCM flight live right now, it is transmitting its real hex which is tied to its registration. https://tar1090.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ad9e0

Yes, you can change the hex code your aircraft is broadcasting, but the FAA probably won't like that - they will want you to join the PIA program. https://www.faa.gov/nextgen/equipadsb/privacy/ https://www.faa.gov/nextgen/equipadsb/privacy/
- sokoloff 6y agoAll of which is clearly explained in under a page in Dotcom ID program I linked to. If you sign up for that program (which provides a third-party callsign assignment) and sign up for PIA and change the flight ID in your transponder, then you don't get tracking by N-number. If you don't do all three of those things and keep transmitting your N-number via ADS-B, then you are trackable by N-number. That DCM2790 is using the same flight number for multiple legs and transmitting their N-number is evidence that they aren't maximizing privacy, not that privacy isn't possible.
