The whole world is a network of skillfully organized criminal groups that skillfully masquerade as a "government" with the connivance of the incompetent, stupid majority of the planet's population, including "developed" countries.

And in rural regions they can't even triangulate, you need to be in the vicinity of at least 3 cell towers after all, nobody builds them that dense where there's nobody to use them.Quote from: S.Yu on May 24, 2021, 21:59:09You don't even need multiple metrics, all you need is accuracy. You do go home at some point, don't you. You probably sleep there. If you live in a house in a rural area, even primitive tracking is sensitive enough. Not to mention that patterns are very useful for identification. So, even if you switch electronic identities, they can be linked. Your behaviour links them.
Desensitized tracking is pretty common, AFAIK generally acceptable if individuals can't be identified. If they simultaneously track enough metrics that people can be identified, then that becomes an issue, and there's no clear line there.
