SignalTrace “links devices that regularly travel together, correlating them to license plate.” It is a surveillance product that will sweep up and add all sorts of Bluetooth and other data to license plate readers, linking specific devices—and people—to cars.

    I’m routing my cellphone through VoIP in my house to a landline phone… I will be not using a cellphone in the near future. all calls to the house, if I’m not home… too bad, leave a message.

    oh you need me to have a phone for mfa? too bad… I won’t use your service or I’m going into the building. it’s 1998 lifestyle for me now.

          I actually realized this seconds before your notification came through- I was thinking mono factor authentication as another joke option for a second and then it clicked.

          That’s less creative than you could have been.

              Just getting content out fast? I’m not sure I approve. There’s a lot to be said for timelessness.

                  See! Yes, it looks like lazy ad hominem on the surface, but use of the word ‘built’ gives it crispy flaky layers like an insulting croissant! Glad you came around!

      If you’re really doing this, that’s amazing, call the media, a documentary needs to be made about you.
