How so S13?

Nearly all digital devices have 'trackable' parts, we all know that. The worrying thing is that mobile phones are EASILY triangulated by their signal. When you go home, do you have your mobile phone with you? Okay, so that's the location of your home sorted.


OK gotcha.

How do TPTB connect me being a prepper to my mobile number though? First I have to be identified as a prepper, in whch case I already have a problem.

As SD has already explained elsewhere, the biggest possibility of corelating mobile phone numbers to preppers is by hackingthe mobile phone records of preppers they do know about and harvesting contact histories. This is rather far fetched, and would only happen if a persoin;s activities triggered anti terrorist interest.

Personally, and to be on the safe side, no other preppers have my main mobile telephone number.

So, regaring your worry: You receive a message on your phone. Once you've read it, turn off the phone and remove the Sim..... you have now dropped off the radar. If you are concerned that the place at which you dropped off is trackable ( and it is) walk down the street and remove the sim there. Really paranoid? Attach your mobile the neighbour's car and let them take your trackable footprint with them to wherever they are going.

But what about if this system becomes an opt-in or opt-out thing? It's possible.

What about if you stay in place? Will people come and remove you from your home? More importantly, and more interesting for the government, why would you stay home? Maybe you have things you need to protect? Maybe you're hiding something?

For me, it makes sense for the government to employ, but also the paranoid part of me says it could be used against us very easily. Haha, I just realised how crazy I sound.
