Defense contractor Leonardo is promoting a new technology called SignalTrace that will package plate cameras with sensors that can scrape unique identifiers tied to your smart devices and make that data available to law enforcement.
Police, border security, and other government agencies already comprise Leonardo’s customer base, and with this technology, those clients seek to correlate footage from these cameras to phones, tablets, wearables, AirTags, and, naturally, the electronics inside cars themselves.
If SignalTrace can pick up your Bluetooth headphones, you can be sure it’ll also be looking out for your vehicle’s 5G hotspot, infotainment system, and even its tire pressure monitoring sensors. The company includes pet microchips as a potential entry point to tracking.

Ya know, thats a good idea. I would make the time frame shorter depending on what the range of the transmitter is. If you switch while in range of the camera would it pick you up as two vehicles?
We have to quit these corporate electronics.
This is how you make tech enthusiasts hate tech.
Or motivate them to tactically acquire new hardware.
The elites don’t want you to know this but the cameras in the park are free, you can take them home.
I had heard previously that shining multiple laser pointers at a camera will break it. Just a thought.
How powerful do we need to get for that. It’d be a clean way to work on the issue. You’ll need to be in line of sight though i imagine.
We got into this in detail on other social media. Some camera types are more susceptible, but the more powerful lasers are dangerous as shit , that could take out any camera. You need eye protection, and welding goggles might not do it because it’s different wavelengths. I’m not a technical guy so I can’t say precisely.
But the regular laser pointers can take out some cameras.
Mass surveillance by corporation
… pet microchips are passive LF RFID tags, they have a readable range of maybe 15cm? Unless they’ve figured out some way to power them at distance (or they’re sticking UHF tags in your dogs, which they arent) without frying the camera and giving everyone cancer, they’re inert. What weird marketing hype.
Industry researchers have managed to create directional antennas that read 125 kHz chips (the kind used in pets) from as far away as one meter. That’s most or all of the width of a sidewalk, if the reader is placed at ground level.
For unimplanted tags of unspecified size sure it’s technically possible to do, but I’ll let the article summarize why this is blatant marketing hype:
The ideal lab setup often fails miserably once you mount the reader near a gate or machine frame.
It’s worth saying: 1 meter is an ambitious goal for 125kHz. LF systems are intentionally short-range to prevent cross-talk. If you truly need 1-meter coverage, sometimes the real solution isn’t to push more current — it’s to rethink geometry, use multi-coil zones, or explore hybrid systems (LF for identity, HF/UHF for distance).
and then mention that the interference from the dermis vastly reduces the useful range of the tags, and that the article doesn’t actually specify what type of tag they’re designing for (or if it’s using a set orientation…).
Maybe time to start creating devices that spam various Bluetooth MACs and just leave them around… Raise the noise floor a bit
One of the reasons 80s tech is making a comeback.
looks like all those phones with physical shutoff switches are looking pretty fuckin good now.
Could one build a device that could overload these with fake data?
Or should we just use cordless angle grinders?
I don’t know anything about jamming these but I do know that DeWalt makes a pretty good cordless angle grinder
Its funnier than that, jammers are not legal, but data poisioning is. Leave a device near by that just rotates through IDs of all the signal types you know its listening for and it protects everyone passing by because their UIDs get lost in the noise.
Perhaps lasers could knock out the cameras.
Kill the rich, save the poor. Taxation, is not enough for the current era. There must be justice for the crimes committed. Once they are dead, then we can figure out how to run the world without capitalism. Untill then, the elimination of the ultra-rich by any means should be the goal. Everything else is noise.
In addition: We have the power. The US power grid is fragile. As such if we all turn off our power at the exact same time, we can cripple the grid. On July 4th at 11pm cst exactly, we can all power down our homes. Even if only 50% do it, it will enough. We have the power, and we will stop these monsters by any means necessary!
Since the US is currently under daylight saving time 11PM CST would be midnight. We are CDT now.
Thankyou for the proper time cordnation.
The more of you that is digital, the more of you they will see. Their ignorance of your life is a critical protection for you, from them.
This AI bubble is gonna crash so hard, none of this processing is sustainable and profitable.
All this data is for palantir, even if the Ai bubble bursts the surveillance apparatus will survive
