Google Tracks Your Location and Shares It With Police, Even When Your Phone is Off
Google Tracks Your Location and Shares It With Police, Even When Your Phone is Off

"Even if you disable GPS, deactivate phone location tracking, and turn off your phone, it’s still possible for Google and the NSA to monitor your every move."

"The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) says police are using a single warrant—sometimes known as a “geo-fence” warrant—to access location data from devices that are linked to individuals who have no connection to criminal activity and have not provided any reasonable suspicion of a crime. Jennifer Lynch, EFF’s Surveillance Litigation Director, says these searches are problematic for several reasons."

The agency has recently been showing up at people's doors when they make certain remarks about certain topics. Just ordinary people with opinions. Many videos. The agents all look like retired older men with bad taste in fashion.

Used to be you could take the battery out to disable tracking, now (I hear) you cannot remove the battery in the newer "smart" phones?

(smart for TPTB, not for the consumer)
Who does your thinking?

I have a small device that plugs into a car lighter port and within 20 seconds of powering it on all GPS and GLONASS signals are lost on any device in about 10 feet of the car.

Unplug it and the signal pops back up in 30 seconds or so.

Google founders

Sergey Brin -> net worth 60 billions
Larry Page -> net worth 60 billion

I appreciate their wealth. They earned it by being traitors.

Still in Germany 99% of people use google.

It is fucked up and it needs to stop.

You don't need GPS to locate a phone. In example mine typically is linked to between five and seven cell sites. Via triangulation it's location is accurate within a few feet. This you can confirm by installing the free application "LTE Discovery" if you've an Android phone, it shows all cell sites currently linked to your phone and even shows an arrow pointing at the one currently handling your calls. Link to app download - [link to play.google.com (secure)]

Might I add that even without GPS active if you use WiFi, you have given up your location via the WiFi hot spot you use.

As for the battery, while some will see it's non-remove ability as nefarious, it actually serves a purpose: phones newer than ~ four years have glass backs instead of plastic backs and are hermetically sealed against water intrusion.

I've lost more than one phone to water damage, now I can drop mine in a pool or river and just wipe it off and it keeps going. The removable battery and its associated door caused irreparable damage to countless phones by water intrusion.

+5, great topic OP!

Until your military service has required you neutralize enemy combatants and invaders in the defense of your country,
don't presume to tell us that have defended you that you don't support every shot we fired to eliminate that enemy.

I use a signal blocking bag "faraday cage envelope" when I want o kill my signal, much easier then pulling the battery out and actually makes a nice protective wallet for a cell phone. Got mine mine for 4$ on ebay.

I wrote my own Android OS, goog is insidious. I only needed about 70 of the +300 routines to have a Secure Phone. Cell site triangulation and Wi-Fi ID'ing not included. The deleted routines were all spyware and monitoring. Something as simple as Voice to Text is even routed to the goog servers for surveillance, but that's how they make the $$$.
