I had a bit of an unpleasant surprise yesterday when I plugged my phone in to charge the battery. It listed where and when I drove for the month of November. WTF? It never did that before. Looks like Bib Brother is truly watching me. Note to BB, GFY! PJ

There was a time that if the GF got in her car on a Friday afternoon, the iPhone immediately gave her an ETA to my house. I guess it picked up on her habits.

There are plenty of tutorials on how to turn off google tracking if that makes you feel safer. However, if you have a battery in your cell phone (even if it is "off") you can still be tracked.
Paranoid yet?

Just wait until you are talking to somebody about something and you start getting emails advertising what you were discussing or start seeing adds for it in apps that display adds.

And you care why ? There is no such thing as any privacy any more.
The NSA tracks every word you speak on the phone and every keystroke you make on a computer.
If "they" want to get you, they will.

NSA will fabricate as needed.
I've always said I've never done anything wrong, other than speed a few times years ago.
So when you see me arrested trust me the chit is about to get ugly. They will fear me and my abilities so I'll be one of the first to go I'm sure.
That said I sleep with a gun and am always armed so beware. Though I do not keep one in the shower so there is your chance NSA

I don't turn on "location" unless I need it for directions or maps etc, which means it is off 95% of the time.

How do I stop my 2020 GMC truck from tracking me? When I cross a time zone it immediately changes the clock. I sure would want to hope I can manage to bring one or two of them along with me, I'll sure as hell hope I would try... You won't have the chance. It will be 2 decent looking plain clothes men show up and say "Mr. OMVHamlin please step outside, we need to have a word with you".

Not only Bib Brother, but Big Brother is likely also watching you.

Even with the location turned off, your ESN is tracked with great accuracy as you bounce off cell towers. This has put more than a few folks in jail thinking they were safe turning off their location function.

We always hear about how “everything is tracked” either cell phones, internet key strokes all emails on and on. And that everything is traceable and able to be found at some level. But yet Hillary and her team were able to simply say that all of her emails and sensitive information was deleted. And because of that nobody can find it.
