  • Lol, this is literally a privacy community, why do you think people would use a throwaway account?

    And its sarcasm. Someone posting a "Hire a hitman today!" isn't actually advocating murder, just to point out the absurdity of the situation.

    But it's fine, I get it, sarcasm is hard to understand.

  • If you want to install free tracking tools, you'll need consent or try to guess the lockscreen password to try to install it covertly.

    With this, its doesn't require consent, since most families are on the same family plan.

    Only abusers would use this, since a normal person who actually cares about a family member's safety would just ask them to install a tracking app voluntarily and be transparent about it.

    Its tracking either way, but doing so voluntarily is way less creepy and also free.

    Most modern Android and iOS allows you to share your locations for free via Google and Apple "Find My Phone" networks.

  • The phone company knows what county I’m in but probably not what businesses and municipal buildings I enter on foot unlike GPS location services.

    They have your approximate location. If you are in a densely populated city, they might not know which specific building or which specific apartment unit, but they'll have a small circle around the area, and if you are in a suburb, where things are more spaced out, they will know the exact stores you go to.

    If you go to a walmart with huge parking spaces all around it, its obvious you went to a walmart.

  • According to the subreddit’s moderators, the AI took on numerous different identities in comments during the course of the experiment, including a sexual assault survivor, a trauma counselor “specializing in abuse,” and a “Black man opposed to Black Lives Matter.”

    You don't need an LLM for that, you got Dean Browning with his xitter alts

  • I mean, I hope that person isn't in the situation anymore, but the only solution is turn on airplane mode and rely on public wifi networks for your communications.

    Or use a prepaid phone with a separate plan.

    (But seriously, maybe start thinking about divorce)

    Also, please never take advice from telecom forums. Look at this comment I found in that thread:

    way to give a lesson in how to be shady. Why do you all care if your HUSBAND knows where you are? He's your HUSBAND he should be the only one who knows where you are at all times! And Vice versa.

    Bruh 🤦‍♂️
