  I’ve said it before and ill say it again. Once your poop hits the inside of my toilet bowl, its my property.

  The flush doesnt take it where you think it does.

  Honestly my one critique of this is that if they manage to infect you with that ‘biotracker’, then they must already know where you are to do so. If not, how would the person they want to track be the only person infected with it? So then this tracker doesn’t really provide any new information. Maybe I’m overthinking it…

    As a note, I do not believe in what Im about to type.

    You could use consistent and unique biotrackers, distributed to the same place and time. Meaning that anytime you detect that biotracker, it necessarily means they were in that place of distribution at a certain time. Over months of tracking this way, you have almost certainly enough data of locations and times to crossreference that only one or maybe a handful of individuals to satisfy.

    What is the point of this? I dunno.

  I need to moonlight as a garbage man and sell your trash data.

    Surprised this isn't already a thing. A high speed camera and some machine-learning vision model could learn a lot from someone's trash as it goes into the garbage truck. It would be accurate to the household level, at least. Very valuable for targeted ad sales.

      Valuable data like whether I use black, grey or white trash bags?

  The main value of sewerage monitoring is overflow prevention. Utilities are fined for every litre of sewage that spills so the operators have to install monitoring to aid with blockage detection and prevention and spill response times.

  The secondary benefit is for recycling wastewater, which makes up the vast majority of all sewage. Monitoring it helps with treatment to create additional drinking water without the need for additional storages and reducing reliance increasingly unreliable rainfall.

  They convinced a lot of people to carry smartphones, which are the most perfect spying gadget there ever was. They just need to do the same thing with smart toilets.

  Apply this logic to the hospitality industry, where Trump famously got his start. Your hotel hosts dignitaries around the world. If you find out one of your guests invited prostitutes or did drugs you could have leverage over some very powerful people. If there is sewage surveillance, you will see it at the hotels first.

  This is why you shouldn't support big sewage! Shit in the woods like a human being!
