The tracking happens even with a big reflector/scatterer on your head, but as long as you dont wear it regularly, the system would have difficulty identifying you from wave propagation alone
Comment on Humans can be tracked with unique 'fingerprint' based on how their bodies block Wi-Fi signals
hornedfiend@sopuli.xyz 10 months agowouldn’t that make it wors? basically any signal can bounce off you, making yourself even easier to track.

Have you tried turning off the router?

I mean, wouldn’t you anyway? You don’t wear your good Sunday tinfoil hat to work. That one’s for church and swinger club visits only!
Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Yeah, wouldn’t want to have to change hats, when I go to the swinger club after church.

Since it ‘figerprints’ you, changing your fingerprint by blocking parts of the signal with pieces of foil doesn’t seem like a terrible idea.
Now, the question is: is such a tactic like wearing gloves, or like using super glue?
