Triangulation isn't needed. Most phones have GPS chips already. If your phone is powered on, and with you, there is no difference between presenting an ID on the phone or physically. The carrier and (for most people) a bunch of apps on your phone already know your location and who you are. Data brokers have merged this information with your credit cards, vehicle registration, voting records, social media posts and tons of other information to create a digital twin. In fact, they probably already predicted you would be at the location you're worried about keeping private before you even arrived.
