I have an ADS-B receiver. It's a hobby. I didn't get any notification yet.
Looks like I let my guard down with Flightware. Again, it's a hobby -- supposed to be a joy. I wrote some code to use TTS to play the departure, aircraft, and flight info so I can sit on my deck and enjoy as flights passed by.
Flightware has my exact location. Of course, so does Google via my phone. But this isn't supposed to be Google. It's a hobby.
And now my hobby is part of the sh*t world of Google and every other data hoarding sociopath enterprise.
I'll stop using piaware.
