But "geofencing"; ie. in the form of the police asking for a list of phones which have been connected to a particular telecommunications tower has been around for decades. This is hardly news anymore.
- pseudolus 4y agoIt's hardly news to people who frequent sites such as HN or follow press releases issued by the EFF or the ACLU but I expect that the general population is surprised at how expansive the data harvesting efforts of law enforcement are. Additionally, the publicity surrounding the scale and scope of the operation is atypical.
