They don’t need cameras. Your phone is constantly connecting to cell towers and broadcasting its unique identifier. Those towers keep a record of who has connected. So long as your in range of 3 or more towers they can triangulate your location.

I drive everywhere. Yeah, I know, fuck cars. But honestly they’re tracking everyone’s movement. Have you noticed all of the intersection cameras that have popped up everywhere? Fuck the authoritarian surveillance state.

True but I don’t like having my phone on me when I don’t want to be reachable. Sometimes it’s turned off at home.

That is a skill that more of us could use. Myself included

You got one of those dongles, like State Farm’s Drive Safe and Save program? Carry a cell phone? You’re still being tracked.

No dongle, and I don’t always carry my phone. I get nonstop work calls, sometimes I turn it off and leave it.

Intersection cameras, license plate readers, face scanning. Expect some or all of it everytime you get behind the wheel.
