servers run by Apple and Google, which can hand them over at law enforcement’s request
If you have a smartphone you are being tracked. If you don't you're being tracked as a NACK which raises alarms. Four people in an elevator with three phones means those get additional scrutiny.
- JohnFen 3y agoHow would "they" know there are four people in that elevator, not three?
- mikece 3y agoI was kinda wondering that myself... unless the implication that there is a camera or other "smart tech" in an elevator that knows how many humans are in the car and this data is being consumed in real time by someone who cares.
- JohnFen 3y agoIn that case, tracking by smartphone is superfluous. They already got the location data through entirely different means, and they'd know there were four people in there even if none of them had a smartphone on them.
- NikkiA 3y agoMany modern elevators track weight changes and refuse to even attempt to work if the weight/person count is above the limit.
- voakbasda 3y agoKeep in mind that it’s now possible to track people in a room using wifi signals. https://hackaday.com/2023/01/26/tracking-humans-with-wifi/ https://hackaday.com/2023/01/26/tracking-humans-with-wifi/
- cchance 3y agoI saw this one and had seen the previous one about using wifi to see through walls really surprised we never saw any opensource projects attempting to replicate the research

- cyrillite 3y agoNACK?
- pizzafeelsright 3y agoNot acknowledge. X people in a space would suggest >X people. Signals and lack of signals are the same thing when tracking or locating.
