Yeah. He addresses it without much of a response.

And there’s good arguments to be made that my hotspot is still trackable. Plus some of the apps I keep aren’t great for privacy (like Duolingo, for example). Try as I might, there’s only so much “harm reduction” I can do, and I could certainly get more protection by doing more. But as I’ve written about before, privacy is a spectrum, not a binary state of being.

He keeps a lot of crap that has user names and passwords. A VPN won’t really help with those.

He also uses free public WiFi. It’s probably okay since a lot of phones have randomized MAC addresses now but with facial recognition, they can easily attach that address with your identity.
