    I think people need to know this, but then they’ll state the most ignorant, ridiculous thing possible about what their phone just “did”, and I marvel that anyone is able to get a single thing done, ever, without help.

    Since it’s commercially available, could it be used to pinpoint/identify the phones of ICE or other law enforcement?

      Their phones can be in lockerroom hq while they use military comms on terrorism duty. But tbh most do bring it

      It’s also pretty poor quality data. Open-source journalists use it alot and make erroneous claims.

      Ryan MacBeth tried to do this to show a person hadn’t left the US, when a third-party had actually recorded them in Palestine.
